Japan Women are back in action with another football match at Tokyo Olympics 2020 as they take on Chile Women on Tuesday. Both teams have failed to meet expectations this year and will need to step up in this fixture.

Chile Women have flattered to deceive at the Olympics and have lost both their matches in the competition so far. La Roja were stunned by Canada Women in their previous game and have a point to prove in this match.

Japan Women, on the other hand, have managed one point from their two matches and could potentially make it to the knock-outs this year. The hosts were handed a 1-0 defeat by Great Britain Women last week and will want to bounce back in this game.

Chile Women have never played an official fixture against Japan Women and will be intent on making their mark in this fixture. The South Americans have had a few problems in recent months and will need to take it up a notch in this match.

Japan Women can be a dangerous team on their day and will want to field an impressive team this week. The Japanese have been efficient in patches but will need to be more consistent in this game.
