USA Women face Canada Women in the Olympic Games semi-finals on Monday, in an intriguing all-North American affair.
Both sides won penalty shootouts in the quarter-finals to reach this stage.
We say: USA Women 2-0 Canada Women
We expect USA to be too strong for their neighbouring rivals on Monday, with their attacking firepower and depth undoubtedly superior.
Canada are disciplined but have struggled to score goals against weaker sides than USA so far this summer, so they could be in store for a third successive bronze medal, which would be no mean feat.

Australia Women vs. Sweden Women (Monday, 12.00pm)

Australia Women take on Sweden Women in the Olympic Games semi-finals on Monday, with both sides desperate to win this competition for the first time in their respective histories.
The two teams already faced each other in the group stages, with Sweden running out 4-2 winners in a highly entertaining game.
We say: Australia Women 1-2 Sweden Women
Australia were only minutes away from crashing out against Great Britain, who it is probably fair to say are not quite as strong as Sweden.
As such, we expect the Swedes to edge out what is likely to be an entertaining affair. They look to have a little more quality across the park than the Matildas, who can be a little too reliant on Kerr.
