England Women will host Brazil Women at Wembley in the Women's Finalissima on Thursday.
The game is an intercontinental playoff that pits the European champions against the South American Champions.
The Lionesses booked their spot in the Finalissima courtesy of their 2-1 extra-time victory over Germany in the 2022 Women's Euro final last year. Brazil triumphed over Colombia with a 1-0 victory in the final of the Women's Copa America.
England come into the game on the back of a comfortable 6-1 win over Belgium in the Arnold Clark Cup in February. Chloe Kelly and Leah Williamson each scored braces to guide their nation to a comfortable win.
Brazil have not been in action since falling to a 2-1 defeat to the USA in the SheBelieves Cup in February. Alex Morgan and Mallory Swanson scored for the world champions, while Ludmila scored a late consolation strike for As Canarinhas.

England Women vs Brazil Women Prediction
After several years of investing in women's football, England have started to reap the dividends, with their Euro win last year expected to kickstart a new era of dominance. The WSL is also stronger than ever and the Lionesses are undoubtedly one of the favorites to go all the way in the World Cup later this year.
Their game against Brazil represents an opportunity to win another trophy and to send a statement of intent about their readiness for the Mundial. Brazil, on the other hand, have been on a decline and have fallen off their previously high standards.
England enter the game as heavy favorites and have home advantage in their favor. Sarina Wiegmann's side are undefeated in 29 games and we are backing the European champions to claim a comfortable win.
