Why USA is a good bet -277?
The United States got past one of the best women’s soccer teams in the world in their 2-1 semifinal victory over England without their best player. Shortly before kickoff against the English, Mary Rapinoe took to the bench.
Rapinoe felt tightness in her hamstring. She didn’t play a single minute in the victory. Rapinoe says that the hamstring is okay and she should be ready for the match versus the Netherlands. With Rapinoe in the lineup, the United States should most definitely beat the Netherlands on Sunday.

2019 FIFA Women’s World Cup Finals Soccer Betting Analysis:
We can’t just write off the Netherlands because they are the European Champions. They’ve also got an excellent player in number 10 Danielle van de Donk. But, the Netherlands loses a day of rest to the United States. Not only that, they’re simply not as talented as either France or England.
USA handled both those squads. The Netherlands could try to play a pack it in strategy and force extra time and possibly penalty kicks. That won’t work against the United States because the U.S.’s offense is so fluid and creative.
If Rapinoe doesn’t play, the Netherlands has a slight chance to lose by only a goal. Rapinoe should be 100% healthy, though, which means the United States wins by at least 2. USA on the handicap is the play.
