The Tokyo Olympics 2020 return to the fold with another women's football game this week as Great Britain Women take on Canada Women this Sunday. Both teams have been impressive this year and will want to win this game.

Great Britain Women have been excellent at the Olympics so far and have won both their matches. The British outfit edged hosts Japan to a narrow 1-0 victory last week and will want another positive result on Tuesday.

Canada Women, on the other hand, have managed four points from their two group matches so far. The Canadians picked up a crucial victory against Chile in their previous game and will be confident ahead of this fixture.


Canada Women vs Great Britain Women Head-to-Head

Great Britain have never played an official fixture against Canada Women and will be intent on making their mark in this fixture. The North American outfit has had a few problems in recent months and will need to take it up a notch in this match.

The team from the British Isles is often formed specifically for the Olympics and is unlikely to play seasoned national teams on a regular basis. Great Britain Women have an excellent opportunity to make history at the Olympics this year.
