While the Spanish women's team is certain to reach the quarterfinals of the 2024 Olympic women's soccer, the Brazilian team still has a lot of work to do to get tickets to continue.
Brazil won 1-0 against Nigeria but then lost to Japan, now with only 3 points. Coach Arthur Elias's team is ranked 3rd in Group C, behind Japan in terms of difference.
A win will help them secure a place in the top 2, or one of the two best third-placed teams. Previously, in all 7 Olympic appearances, Brazil reached the knockout round of women's soccer.
Spain, on the other hand, was assured of a place in the quarter-finals after securing maximum points from the first two matches. La Roja also became the fourth women's team to win both of their first two matches at the Olympics.
After securing a place in the knockout round, La Roja are now aiming for top spot. Spain will be full of confidence having won 17 of the previous 20 matches, including 10 wins in the last 11 matches.
Probable teams
Brazilian women's team: Lorena; Thais, Rafaelle, Tarciane; Antonia, Yaya, Duda, Yasmim; Ludmila, Marta, Jhennifer
Spanish women's team: Coll; Batlle, Codina, Aleixandri, Carmona; Bonmati, Abelleira, Guijarro; Del Castillo, Navarro, Garcia
