CANWNT vs Australia Expectations
- We expect to see Australia take home the three points, as the team recorded three consecutive victories.
- Furthermore, the Canadian ladies will have a hard time penetrating the Aussie backline, as Australia didn’t concede in three back-to-back goals.
- We shouldn’t get our hopes up for a goal-infested game. Four consecutive games for Australia and two for Canada ended in two or fewer goals.

Canada odds: +205 – 31.0%
Draw odds: +225 – 27.0%
Australia odds: +130 – 42.0%
As you can see from these odds, Canada aren’t anyone’s favorite to win at +205. The Canucks contain a lackluster 31.0% shot at the three points, while Australia have a 42.0% win probability ahead of the last game in Group B. Australia are also the bookmakers’ expected winners ahead of this match at +130, so the symbolic visitors will have to prove the bookies right on this one. As we stated earlier, we expect to see Australia keep a clean sheet. BTTS – No is currently priced at -120, which means there’s a 54.55% likelihood that Canada or Australia aren’t going to be able to find the net on Monday.
Canada vs Australia Lineups & Team News
Canada
The Canucks were by far the better of the two teams on the 21st of July. Nigeria did what’s necessary to keep a clean sheet and chip a point away from Canada, but the truth is that the North American side had a massive 68.0% possession and three times as many shots on target that could’ve easily resulted in goals. It’s that sort of consistent performance by the Canadian side that could help the team escape Group B. To do so, Canada will have to prove everyone wrong with a victory against favorites Australia.
Predicted lineup – Sheridan (GK), Lawrence, Gilles, Buchanan, Riviere, Quinn, Grosso, Leon, Sinclair, Rose & Huitema
Australia
As much as we sympathize with Canada’s cause, we find it difficult to see how Australia are going to lose this one. Of course, everything can happen in soccer, but with such solid displays throughout the last couple of games, Australia truly have the three points up for grabs, as well as a place in the round of 16.
Predicted lineup – Arnold (GK), Carpenter, Hunt, Kennedy, Catley, Raso, Gorry, Cooney-Cross, Vine, Foord & Fowler
Player to Watch: Stephanie Catley
Australia’s number 7 is on our radar this week. Stephanie brought the three points home in the clash against Nigeria on the 20th of July after a well-placed penalty shot in the 52nd minute of the game.
The 29-year-old Australian defender has been at her lethal best throughout the last two-three seasons, and it’s no wonder she found her name among the coach’s starters against the Nigerian ladies. We believe that defending Arsenal’s colors really improved her skills throughout the years, and we believe she’ll do just fine against Canada this week.
