Top 2023 FIFA Women's World Cup predictions 

Green is backing hosts Australia to reach the quarterfinals for a -105 payout. The expert believes Sam Ferr and company will be plenty confident entering the 2023 Women's World Cup after winning eight of their last nine matches, and the Aussies have a deep enough roster to advance out of a group consisting of Canada, Nigeria and the Republic of Ireland.

The expert also thinks the Matildas will fare well in the quarterfinals. If they are able to top Group B, they will face the runners-up from Group D. Denmark is the projected second-place finisher in that group, and the Australians defeated the Danes 3-1 in a friendly match last October.

"Australia are superior to the Danes, and they should make the quarter-finals," Green told SportsLine. See Green's other 2023 Women's World Cup picks at SportsLine.
