Women's World Cup 2023 live stream: preview
England and Spain are both aiming to win the FiFA Women’s World Cup title for first time today (kick-off at 11:00 BST). The Lionesses could become the first English football team to win senior final on world stage since 1966.
Spain made it through to Sunday's final after beating Sweden 2-1 yesterday. England beat Australia 3-1 with some lovely touches from the Lionesses to book their place in the England vs Spain World Cup final. Full schedule below.
Ten stadiums across nine cities – five in Australia and four in New Zealand – will play host to 32 of the best teams on the planet, with defending champions the USA hoping to lift the trophy for a fifth time and make it three wins in a row. They will face stiff competition from a number of European sides, including Germany, Spain, France, Sweden, the Netherlands and European champions England, although many squads will be without key players through injury.
Fran Kirby, Beth Mead and Leah Williamson will all be absent for the Lionesses, but Rachel Daly is in the form of her life. Arsenal's Dutch star Vivianne Miedema is out with a knee injury, and French winger Delphine Cascarino will also be watching at home on TV, while America's trio of Catarina Macario, Mallory Swanson and captain Becky Sauerbrunn all have fitness issues that will keep them off the pitch.
With the competition expanded to 32 teams for the first time, there are also a number of underdogs hoping to make their mark. Ireland, Zambia and Portugal may be out but Jamaica are through to the Women's World Cup knockout stages for the first time ever. They play Columbia for a place in the quarter-finals.
The Women's World Cup wraps up with the final on Sunday, 20th August. Make sure you know how to watch a Women's World Cup live stream from anywhere in the world.
