Area: Allianz Riviera

Television slot: FOX and Universo

Gushing: fuboTV (Try for nothing)

Chances: N/A

France: It’s about the set pieces here, because France was extraordinary on them in the opener with two goals. Wendie Renard is a beast in assault and she will be entrusted with attempting to add another goal to her count as France makes such a decent showing with regards to in the final third of drawing fouls. Against Norway, they’ll be the favorite but will be cautious against a team that has confidence.

Norway: All eyes were in this team in the opener with superstar Ada Hegerberg declining to join the national team for the tournament. Norway looked sharp however in the opener, responding to the inquiry on the off chance that they can make enough in assault without Hegerberg. It’s going to be a challenge to get far without her, but here is a chance to prove they are for real. A draw would be a fine result.
