The start of the 2023 Women’s World Cup is nearly upon us – with the ninth edition of the tournament kicking off on Thursday 20th July.

Australia and New Zealand will play host as, thanks to the expanded format, 32 of the world’s best teams head to the Southern Hemisphere hoping to get their hands on football’s greatest prize.

After their Euro 2022 success, Sarina Weigman’s Lionesses are looking to become the first England side to lift the World Cup but current holders and four-time winners United States are among the sides desperate to deny them.

The final looks a long way off now, but it’s certainly a date that all of the contenders will have in their calendars.

Thankfully, despite the major time difference between Australia and the UK, the final will be played at a kind hour for English fans – not that we want to jinx anything.
