Spain Women vs. N'lands Women (Friday, 2.00am)
As the Women's World Cup 2023 enters the business end of the tournament, Spain Women will go head-to-head with the Netherlands Women in Friday's quarter-final tie.
La Roja cruised to victory in their last-16 meeting with Switzerland, while the Netherlands got the better of South Africa.
We say: Spain Women 2-1 Netherlands Women
The first quarter-final tie looks set to be a close-fought affair, and both teams will be looking for their key players to make a difference.
Bonmati has been one of the standout individuals in the Spain squad, and if she can produce another solid performance on Friday, we think that she could help her country get over the line against the Netherlands.

Japan Women vs. Sweden Women (Friday, 8.30am)
Japan Women and Sweden Women will be vying for a place in the semi-finals of the Women's World Cup 2023 when they face off at Eden Park on Friday.
Sweden eliminated the defending champions USA in the previous round, while Japan brushed past Norway in their last-16 tie.
We say: Japan Women 2-1 Sweden Women
After playing 120 minutes against the USA, there may be some weary legs among the Sweden squad, and we think that tiredness could play into the hands of their opponents.
Japan have proven at the tournament that they are comfortable dominating possession as well as launching clinical counter-attacks, and we think they will showcase their attacking talent to secure their place in the semi-finals.
