South Africa – Italy Women Preview: News, Recent Form, and Possible Lineups
Check the latest news and information on these teams here, including the probable South Africa vs Italy Women lineups:
South Africa Women
After loss to Sweden in the first round, South Africa draw with Argentina in the second round of group stages at World Cup, which was their first-ever point at the biggest stage. Unfortunately for South Africa, the team actually had a 2-0 lead in the second half, but they couldn't hold on to it. South Africa does have a chance to reach the next stage still, but they need to beat Italy to get there, which is a tough task.
South Africa Women Predicted Lineup:
Swart – Ramalepe, Mbane, Gamede, Holweni – Jane, Biyana – Seoposenwe, Motlhalo, Magaia – Kgatlana
Italy Women
The loss to Sweden 5-0 in the last round was one of the worst ones in Italy's World Cup history, so it has to sting a lot. Still, the team's win over Argentina in the first round puts Italy in a good position ahead of the final game in the group since they can secure their place in the next stage with a win over South Africa, although a draw might end up being enough as well, as long as Sweden doesn't lose to Argentina.
Italy Women Predicted Lineup:
Durante – Di Guglielmo, Salvari, Linari, Boattin – Caruso, Giugliano – Beccari, Dragoni, Bonanea – Giacinti
Starting Lineups

Player to Watch: Cristiana Girelli
With the next stage hanging by a thread for Italy, they need a win over South Africa and since we can see them getting it, our player to watch is the team's captain Cristiana Girelli.
The experienced striker is the team's captain, top scorer, and, so far, the only goalscorer for Italy at this World Cup. So, South Africa will have to focus on Girelli in this game if they want to get a good result.
