• China vs Haiti Prediction: Fifa Women’s World Cup Match on 28.07.2023

Women’s World Cup 2023 Preview

It’s fair to say that the reigning European Champions came into the World Cup with questions to answer after failing to score in each of their last three international fixtures. It would also be safe to say that they didn’t answer those questions in the resounding manner than many expected in their opening match against Haiti, as they edged to a 1-0 win following a retaken penalty following VAR intervention by Georgia Stanway.

It wasn’t for the lack of trying by England, as they registered eleven shots on target in that success, but they lacked a clinical edge that would have saw them run out wider-scoring winners. The victory means that England have now won their last six group stage matches at the World Cup, but it was just the third time in six appearances that they had won their opening match.

Denmark will present a far more challenging test for the Lionesses on Friday morning, as they could secure their passage through to the knockout stage with a game to spare. The Danes were forced to be incredibly patient in their opening match against China, with the deadlock being broken with just a minute of normal time remaining by Amalie Vangsgaard. 

It was a memorable moment for Denmark, as it marked the first time in four attempts that the Danes had registered a win over China. It was also the third time that Denmark had won their opening match, and the first time that they had achieved that feat since 1995. 

England vs Denmark Head to Head

This will be the fifth clash between England and Denmark since 2005, with the Lionesses holding a decent advantage having landed three victories. Denmark has landed just a single win from the previous clashes.

England vs Denmark Prediction

This will be a tricky game for England, despite the advantage that they hold in the overall record. They were well below their best in their opening match, and we wouldn’t be surprised to see Denmark land a shock win in Sydney on Friday morning.
