Featured Game| England vs. Denmark
Why you should back England
The Lionesses have a proven goal scorer in Alessia Russo. The 24-year-old striker scored 26 goals in 59 appearances after joining Manchester United in 2020. She also has found the back of the net 11 times in 22 matches at the international level for England. Her stellar 2022-23 season helped Russo earn a big long-term contract with Arsenal earlier this month.
In addition, the Lionesses are on a scoring roll at the Women's World Cup. England have scored in 14 straight matches at the tournament. That is one match shy of the record for most successive games with a goal, which is held by Norway (1991-'99). See which team to pick here.
Why you should back Denmark
The Danes face an England side that will be missing two significant players. Captain Leah Williamson, who serves as the heart of the defense, was not included on the roster after suffering an ACL injury in April. Also, Beth Mead, who won the Golden Boot as the leading scorer in last year's Women's Euro, is unavailable with an ACL injury.
In addition, Denmark have one of the world's best players in Pernille Harder. The 30-year-old midfielder and forward averages almost a goal every other game for the national team, with 70 goals in 142 appearances. In her career she has been named UEFA Player of the Year twice and Danish Football Player of the Year seven times. See which team to pick here.
