Today, we will be discussing the predictions for
Group A. The group is composed of very interesting teams: France, South Korea,
Norway and Nigeria.
All four of these teams have a good chance of
qualifying out of the group, but what can we say about them?
According to Jacob Hanssen, leading specialist at
sports odds division at Norskecasino.casino,
France is the obvious favourite, as it is one of the best-ranked teams in the
world. Norway and South Korea are similarly ranked and have a tight competition
going on between the two of them. Nigeria is the worst ranked in the group, but
we wouldn't be too hasty in saying that Nigeria will not be the qualifying
team, as they do have a history of showing surprisingly good performance at
points throughout their history. So let us get into the meat of the story and
figure out what might be some of the reasons one of the teams might move on
from the group and get closer to the World Cup.
The group works like this: Each team will be
playing three games, one against each team in the group. Two teams with the
highest points will advance to the knockout stage while the two with the lowest
will be knocked out of the championship. The knockout stage will be deciding which
team from the group will be moving on to the championship. If the teams end up
being even by the end of the game, additional time will be added so that the
decision can be made. Pretty simple right?
Well, the teams participating in the game have a
history of playing against each other. Each of the teams has a good chance, but
certain predictions regarding the actions and possible future of each team can
be made. Let us see what teams are playing each other and when.
Game Breakdown
The first match will be between France and South Korea.
France is the number three ranked player in the
world, while South Korea is somewhere in the tens. The French offensive power
is well known in the entire league, but one thing that rivals their offensive
ability in fame is the South Korean defensive ability in 2019. While most of
the time people would be fast to conclude that the French will be easily
winning this game, we are not sure this time about, expecting the South Korean
defence to stand up well to the French.
The second match is between Norway and Nigeria.
These two teams have not missed too many
championships in the past, with Norway women's national football team having 3
and Nigeria having 22 on their record. Whether one will knock the other out we
cannot be sure, but we are sure the rivalry is there. Though one thing is sure:
Norway is the favourite in this game.
The third match will be between Nigeria and South Korea.
This game will be an interesting one, even if the
South Koreans are expected to win. Nigerians have been known to produce a good
show of force when needed.
The fourth match will be between France and Norway.
The French team has been saying that this is the game
they are most worried about. This is the 11th duel between the two teams and
nobody can say for sure who will be winning. Norway has not missed a single
championship since joining and has one Championship victory from 1995 under
their belt. It seems this will be one of the highlight battles of the group.
The 5th battle will be between Nigeria and France.
Nigerian women's national football team has
some very sour experiences of playing with France and will be looking to take
revenge for previous losses. They might be in for a challenge though, as France
is the favourite in this game. Still, we believe giving the underdog a chance
might be a good idea for everyone.
The 6th and final battle will be between South Korea and Norway.
These two teams are currently evenly matched in
terms of ranking and in terms of actual ability. This is the game where one of
the teams will for sure be getting kicked out, so expect a lot of drama and a
whole lot of adversity between the two. Still, this looks to be an interesting
match without a clear winner in our minds right now. Though the famed South
Korean defence might have something to say about that.
So far it looks like Group A will be full of some
of the most dramatic games of the season. It might still be a little early to
start making predictions as things might change in the half a year that we have
to wait before we can see the games actually happen. Yet we cannot contain ourselves
and have to make some preliminary predictions. We believe this will be one of
the most interest groups to watch out for in the 2019 Women’s World Cup.
