The match between Colombia and Jamaica in the round of 16 of the 2023 Women's World Cup takes place at 3:00 p.m. on August 8.
Colombia women's team is considered to be better than Jamaica.
Colombia vs Jamaica Prediction
Colombia's women's team is a phenomenon at the 2023 World Cup, entering the round of 16 as group H winners.
In the opening match, the Colombian women's team easily beat South Korea 2-0, and then they continued to create an earthquake when they defeated Germany 2-1.
Although they lost in the final match against the underdog Morocco, everyone understood that at that time the South American representative was sure to have a ticket to the round of 16.
In terms of personnel quality, under coach Nelson Abadia there are not many outstanding names. The most notable case is probably the case of rising star Caicedo.
But in return, the Colombian women's team is a united, resilient and disciplined team.
On the opposite side of the field, the presence of the Jamaican women's team in the knockout round can also be considered a surprise at the 2023 World Cup.
In the group stage, “The Reggae Girlz” maintained an unbeaten record when drawing with two giants, France and Brazil, along with a win against Panama.
In past matches, the Jamaican women's team often took the initiative to play low, even willing to play defensively if necessary.
This style of play is bringing great efficiency to coach Lorne Donaldson's team when they did not concede any goals in the group stage.
But the deep defensive formation also greatly affected the attacking power of the Jamaican women's team, as evidenced by the fact that they only scored 1 goal after 3 matches at the 2023 World Cup.
Back to the round of 16, in theory Jamaica is rated lower than Colombia's women's team.
But with what they have shown, Shaw and his teammates have shown that they are not easy opponents to bully.
Colombia vs Jamaica Prediction: 2-1
Expected lineup
Colombia (4-2-3-1): Perez; Arias, Carabali, Alexandra, Guzman; Montoya, Bedoya; Caicedo, Usme, Santos; Ramirez.
Jamaica (4-1-4-1): Spencer; Wiltshire, Swaby, Swaby, Blackwood; Sampson, Primus, Spence, Matthews, Brown; Shaw.
