Women's World Cup 2023: What to expect on Day 4

There are three matches up for decision on the fourth day of action at the Women's World Cup, but two of Sunday's encounters are shaping up as major mismatches, with France likely to outclass Jamaica and Sweden set to swat away the challenge of South Africa.

Sandwiched between those two fixtures is the clash of the Netherlands and Portugal, which promises to be a more competitive match, albeit one that the Dutch will expect to win.

Sweden are determined to shake off a run of near-misses at major tournaments and are comfortable with their status as a top contender as they begin their quest for the title against South Africa.

Ranked third in the world, Sweden are traditionally a superpower in the women's game but their only triumph at a major tournament came at the 1984 European Championship.

Sweden reached last year's Euro semi-finals, lost the Olympic gold to Canada on penalties at 2020 Tokyo Games and were third at the 2019 World Cup.

Their best finish at the global showpiece was in 2003, when they were runners-up.

"Sweden is always a contender, I would say," Kosovare Asllani told reporters on Saturday. "It's not only because we are very highly ranked in world rankings, because at the end of the day that doesn't matter at all. "But it's the way that we approach matches and tournaments, more and more players that got experience from tournaments and were more comfortable being a favourite in a sense like we've been before as well. "Primarily, the way in which we approach this as a team, we have plenty of players with excellent qualities. Right now, I'm just dying to get out there and show people what we've been practising in the past couple of weeks."
