After beginning the tournament with a commanding 5-0 win over Zambia, Japan Women will attempt to build upon their encouraging start when they face Costa Rica Women on Wednesday.

In contrast to their opponents, Costa Rica are still looking to get off the mark after losing to Spain in their opening game of the Women's World Cup 2023.

We say: Japan Women 4-0 Costa Rica Women

After cruising to victory in their opening game against Zambia, we think that Japan will produce another dominant display to sweep past Costa Rica on Wednesday.

Our tipster partners are predicting over 3.5 goals.

Spain Women will look to begin the Women's World Cup 2023 with consecutive victories when they face Zambia Women at Eden Park on Wednesday.

While La Roja breezed through their opening game against Costa Rica, Zambia suffered a heavy 5-0 defeat to Japan in their first-ever match at a Women's World Cup.

We say: Spain Women 5-0 Zambia Women

Spain have proven to be a free-scoring side in recent times, and we think that they could take advantage of Zambia's shaky backline to claim another comfortable victory.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 3.5 goals.

Both Canada Women and Ireland Women will attempt to claim their first victory of the Women's World Cup 2023 when they face off in Perth on Wednesday.

Canada picked up a point from their opening game against Nigeria, while the Republic of Ireland were narrowly beaten by the tournament co-hosts Australia.

We say: Canada Women 2-1 Ireland Women

After competing with Australia on matchday one, we expect Ireland to run the Canucks close, but we believe that Canada's extra quality will help them claim all three points in Perth.

Our tipster partners are predicting a home win.
