Betting tips
France Women 3-1 Brazil Women (11/1 with BetUK)
France have both scored and conceded in all three games at the 2024 Olympics, winning two. Brazil have lost their last two matches at the Olympics, while France have won the last five head-to-head meetings between the two sides.
Marie-Antoinette Katoto First Goalscorer (9/2 with Bet365)
Marie-Antoinette Katoto is making up for lost time for France and in style. The 25-year-old has scored in every game at the 2024 Olympics so far, notching five goals in total.
France Women to win & BTTS (5/2 with Sky Bet)
France are unbeaten in each of their last 12 matches against Brazil and have won both matches at the 2024 Olympics whilst conceding.
Despite losing to Canada in their second group stage game, France qualified for the quarter-finals as Group A winners after the Canadians were docked six points for their spying allegations.
Sandwiched between that aforementioned defeat to the defending champions, France beat both Colombia and New Zealand by a single goal to book their place in the final eight and move one step closer to winning their first ever medal for Women’s football at the Olympic games.
Standing in their way of history are Brazil, who after two silver medals in 2004 and 2008, are looking to get their hands on the gold for the very first time. That looks a long way off however, after only making it this far as one of the best third placed sides.
After beating Nigeria 1-0 in their opening game, they suffered back-to-back defeats to Japan and then Spain but scraped through on goal difference after Australia conceded eight goals in their opening two matches.
France Women and Brazil Women face off at 8pm on Saturday 3rd August with the game played at the Stade de la Beaujoire in Nantes.
France Women team news
With five goals in three games, Marie-Antoinette Katoto will once again lead the line ahead of Eugenie Le Sommer, while Kadidiatou Diani and Sandy Baltimore will battle it out to complete the attacking trio alongside Delphine Cascarino. Sandie Toletti had to make do with a place on the bench against New Zealand but will be hoping to return to the starting XI for this one.
Brazil Women team news
Brazil returned to a back four in their defeat to Spain and we should see that once again here. All-time leading goalscorer Marta is suspended however after being sent off in that game for a dangerous tackle.
France Women vs Brazil Women head-to-head
France are unbeaten in each of their last 12 meetings against Brazil across all competitions.
