2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup Teams That Will Reach Knockout Stage By Group

The 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup kicks off this Thursday on July 20. Unlike the past couple of Women’s World Cup cycles, the United States isn’t a lock to win it all. England, Spain, and Germany are solid squads. So are the Nigerians, the Australians, and Canada. England and Germany are considered favorites like the Americans. Nigeria, the Aussies, and the Canadians are underdogs.

Which teams make it to the knockout stage? See below for group stage Women’s World Cup soccer odds and predictions.

Group A: New Zealand, Norway

Norway and New Zealand play on Thursday. The Norwegians should solidify their position as the group favorite.

Switzerland has a shot to win Group A, but we’re calling the upset and backing New Zealand, the co-host nation, along with Australia.

Group B: Australia, Canada

Australia is playing light out leading up to this. The Aussies have an underdog shot of making it to the quarterfinals and, maybe, even the semifinals.

Canada is a solid team. The Canadians are playing great. However, they were throwing down against top teams and every game was a friendly. So we must respect the Canadians.

Group C: Spain, Japan

The Spanish have a legit chance of upsetting the United States, England, and Germany and winning the World Cup. In 3 of their last 5, Spain has beaten Vietnam by 9, Denmark by 2, and Norway by 2.

Japan isn’t as solid of a squad as it has been in past World Cup cycles but the other two teams in Group C, Zambia and Costa Rica, aren’t on Japan’s level. The Japanese move to the knockout stage.

Group D: England, Denmark

England can win it all. The Women’s EURO Championship 2022 victors are close to the United State’s level. England might be more cohesive. We’ll see once play starts.
Denmark makes the Round of 16 by default. China and Haiti drew into Group D.

Group E: United States, Netherlands

Portugal is solid, but we’re going with the Dutch to join the United States in the knockout round. The Netherlands beat Belgium 5-0 in their last and lost to the Netherlands by 1 three matches ago.

Team USA has every right to be the World Cup chalk. The team has a good mix of young talent, like soon to be star Trinity Rodman, and veteran Alex Morgan. If the U.S. doesn’t make it to at least the semifinals, it would be a massive upset.

Group F: France, Brazil

Both the French and Brazilian sides have at least five years to catch up to their male counterpart soccer programs. However, France and Brazil are the class of Group F.

Neither should lose to Jamaica or Panama. So France and Brazil moving to the Round of 16 is as close to a sure thing as we’re going to see at the 2023 World Cup.

Group G: Italy, Sweden

Group G is the toughest to predict. Sweden should make it, but after the Swedes, the Group is sort of wide open.

South Africa isn’t great, but they could sneak into the Round of 16. Both Italy and Argentina have shown flashes. Of the two, we’ll side with Italy because the Italians hung with England, losing by a single goal, at the Arnold Clark Cup.

Group H: Germany, Morocco

Germany is one of the best teams at this year’s Women’s World Cup. The Germans can win it all. So anything less than a trip to the semis would be a disappointment.

Morocco is the other pick to move on from Group H. The Moroccan women’s team plays defense the way the men’s squad does. Don’t be surprised if Morocco frustrates their attacking style opponents.
