Portugal have a chance to shock the world on Tuesday when they take on the United States Women’s National Team at the 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup. The final group-stage match at Eden Stadium in Auckland, New Zealand has high stakes — for both teams. The USWNT are tied for the lead in Group E with the Netherlands, but Portugal are just one point behind. That means the reigning-champion Americans need at least a draw to assure they advance. The USWNT have won four Women’s World Cups, but a 1-1 draw with the Dutch on Wednesday means they could go home early. The Americans beat Vietnam 3-0 in their opener, and the Dutch beat Portugal 1-0, so the USWNT hold the goal-differential tiebreaker. A loss by the Americans would mean they would need a Vietnam victory against the Dutch, while maintaining that tiebreaker advantage, to move on.
Tuesday’s kickoff is set for 3 a.m. ET. The United States are -390 favorites (risk $390 to win $100) in the latest USWNT vs. Portugal odds from Caesars Sportsbook. Portugal are +1000 underdogs, a draw is +420 and the over/under for total goals scored is set at 2.5.
