Stats and facts:

England have won four out of the last five games since losing to Canada in April.

The last meeting between these two nations at the world cup ended in heartbreak for England. It came in the semi-final with Japan winning 2-1 courtesy of Laura Bassett‘s own goal in the 92nd minute.

Japan have not lost at the group stage since losing 0-2 to England in 2011.

Likely to score:

• For Japan: Yuika Sugasawa, Mana Iwabuchi
• For England: Jodie Taylor, Nikita Parris

Captain and Vice-Captain options:

Jodie Taylor: An unused substitute in Game-1, Taylor gave a perfect reminder with her goal that class is permanent. It was her first goal in 14 months and 2nd since Phil Neville took charge of the team. But it’s more down to the injury other than anything else, and with her regaining full fitness, you can expect the Euro 2017 Golden Boot winner to be amongst the goals here.

Nikita Parris: Raheem Sterling of Women football, and it’s not an exaggeration by any means, for she is talented enough to be counted amongst the very best. The right side of the wing is hers, and she has the pace and the trickery to rattle nay defender. With Japan normally compact, watch out for her intricate passing to slit them open.

Yuika Sugasawa: She is like an ultimate pro amongst Japan’s 17 first timers playing in the world cup. With the stamina of a marathon runner and the habit of coming deep into the midfield to help the teammates when the opponents are on the front foot, she is a vital cog in the team. The 28-year-old will have a lot of wind in her sails after scoring a goal in the last game.

X-Factor:

Japan’s compactness in the midfield and improved passing:
Hina Sugita, Narumi Miura, Emi Nakajima

Suggested combination:
