Spain finished 2nd in their group after a humbling defeat against Japan but they have since recovered with a convincing win over the Swiss in the round of 16. The Netherlands managed to top one of the tournament’s toughest groups but they are the outsiders for this match. A win for either side would give them a huge morale boost ahead of the semi-final.

Spain to book their place in the last four
The first of our Women’s world Cup tips for this match is Spain to win in regulation time.
The odds suggest these sides are very closely matched. The Netherlands surprised many by topping their group over the now-eliminated USWNT. They earned victories over Portugal and Vietnam so their draw with the USA was enough to take 1st place. However, they remain the underdogs for this fixture against Spain.
Spain were third favourites prior to the start of this World Cup and their confidence will have been boosted by their 5-1 win over Switzerland.
The Spaniards have won their last three meetings with the Netherlands stretching back to 2018. Over the course of these three matches, they have scored five and conceded none.

Netherlands to pose a threat on the counter.
Our second prediction is both teams to score in a match that should see plenty of chances at both ends.
Spain have scored the 2nd most goals per game at this World Cup. They are averaging 3.25 per game and have looked formidable going forward. Jennifer Hermoso and Aitana Bonmati have been the biggest attacking threats and they showcased just how dangerous they can be from midfield in the round of 16.
Jorge Vilda’s side are serious contenders to win the trophy but they have shown some frailty in defence. They were stunned when Japan beat them 4-0 and Switzerland managed to score with their only shot on target against the Spanish in the last round.
The Netherlands are also strong in attack. They have found the net in all of their matches in the tournament so far; scoring 11 on their way to the quarter-finals. They will need to make the most of their opportunities going forward and Spain have already shown they are susceptible to counterattacks.

Hermoso to find the net once again
The last of our tips for Spain vs Netherlands is for Jennifer Hermoso to score for the favourites.
Hermoso has featured as a midfielder and a striker for Spain in this tournament. She started as a deeper centre midfielder in her last match and found the net as her team dominated possession. Jennifer played as a lone striker against Zambia and scored twice.
She has racked up 15 attempts this tournament and just under half of those have found the target. Spain control the flow of matches and have the highest average possession in the tournament with 75.5%. This allows the midfield to occupy advanced areas of the pitch so Hermoso will get chances wherever she plays against the Dutch.
