THE KEY STATS
THE PREDICTION
Whilst this game, on the face of it, means very little for the Republic of Ireland, it actually means a whole lot. The Irish are playing at what they hope to be the first of many FIFA Women’s World Cups and they will want to depart ‘down under’ with something to show. In contrast, Nigeria are eyeing up entering the knockout stages as group winners, ahead of both Canada and Australia. Given their impressive results so far, a low-scoring Nigerian win seems the way to go for this one.
TIP: NIGERIA TO WIN & UNDER 3.5 GOALS
