THE PREDICTION
Less than convincing going forward, but rock solid in defence combined with a proven goalscorer at the highest level has helped England to six points from six in Group E and their place in the knockout stage already secure. They will no doubt want to finish with a flourish here against Canada, who will leapfrog Great Britain to top spot in the group with a win. However, when assessing how well England’s backline have performed so far having not conceded a goal across their opening two games, the likes of Man City star Janine Beckie could well struggle to make an impact in this one, with club teammate Steph Houghton marshalling the Great British defence. On the opposite side of the pitch however, another Man City player in Ellen White will be confident of adding to her three goals accrued already in the tournament against a side who are yet to keep a clean sheet. White made the difference for Great Britain last time out against Japan, scoring the only goal of the game and the in-form striker may well be the one to have the final word again here vs Canada in a narrow victory for Great Britain.
