The United States are the reigning World Champions after winning their fourth crown in 2019. They have a wealth of talent at their disposal and they are the bookmakers favourite to lift the trophy once again. They are taking on the underdogs, Vietnam on Saturday.

USWNT to end the match on a high note
The second of our Women’s World Cup tips is for the majority of goals to be scored in the second half.
It’s difficult to envisage anything other than an emphatic victory for the United States in this one. They have been at the top of the women’s game for a very long time and they come into this tournament on a nine-match winning run.
Vietnam will look to remain defensively solid for as long as possible. They won gold at the South East Asian Games and while they won’t be able to control the ball, they have to ability to frustrate the mighty USWNT.
The United States have faced three nations currently ranked outside FIFA’s top 25 this calendar year. Unsurprisingly, they have won all three with ease.
Over the course of these matches, they scored 11 and conceded none. There have been more goals in the second half in all three of those matches.

United States pressure to pay dividends in the second half
The USWNT has won both of the last two Women’s World Cups. They are the favourites for this competition but they will want to make a strong start with England and Spain gunning for their title.
The United States are expected to score a glut of goals. Several of their players are odds on to find the net with BetKing.
Their quality should shine through in this fixture, especially in the second half. This bet landed in both of their recent matches with New Zealand, They were wasteful against Wales but that’s something they will look to remedy here.
In the previously mentioned three matches against sides outside the top 25 in 2023, 10 of the 11 goals have been scored in the second half and this bet has landed in all three of those matches.

Vietnam to struggle in both halves
Vietnam have the unenviable task of taking on the world champions in their opener and it’s difficult to see them laying a finger on the United States. We seldom see odds of 37/1 for a team to win in a major tournament but that’s exactly what BetKing are offering here.
With this in mind, we are getting the favourite on the side for our third bet of the match. I’m predicting Vietnam to fail to find the net here. We can get odds of 71/100 for Vietnam to score the same amount of goals in each half.
U.S.A’s final match before the tournament came against Wales. They restricted their opponents to two attempts, none of which were on target. The Welsh are two places above Vietnam in the rankings so this match is a good indicator for what’s to come.
