Winning Prediction
Australia Women are the favorites to win this contest against a slightly inexperienced Argentina side. Argentina lacks the physicality of the Australian squad, and their defense is expected to be an issue.
Expect a rather one-sided contest in favor of Australia, as well as a moderate-scoring game. Australia is projected to score over 88 points, while Argentina is expected to score under 50 points.
