Australia Women vs France Women Betting Odds, Tips, Predictions

The Suncorp Stadium will be the stage for a FIFA Women’s World Cup quarter-final contest between Australia and France on Saturday.

Both teams are chasing a first-ever World Cup semi-final spot. France will be particularly confident after the way they dismantled Morocco in the last-16. But with the home crowd behind them, Australia should be up to the challenge of taking on the French in Milton.

The winner of the Australia-France tie will face either England or Colombia in the semi-finals.
