Two tournament debutants will lock horns in Hamilton as Portugal and Vietnam look to win their first ever match at a Women's World Cup.
Both sides come into the game off the back of defeats, though both can be proud of their performances against the two finalists of the 2019 World Cup.
Vietnam were resilient in defence and had their goalkeeper Tran Thi Kim Thanh save an Alex Morgan penalty, but they were eventually overrun by the heavyweights 3-0 in Auckland.
Portugal, meanwhile, were able to frustrate and limit the attacking opportunities for the Netherlands in their opening match in Dunedin, but an early first-half header for the Dutch eventually helped them get a 1-0 win.
Portugal's clash against Vietnam begins at 7:30 p.m. local time at Waikato Stadium in Hamilton.

Portugal projected starting lineup (4-4-2): Pereira (GK) — Borges, Costa, Gomes, Amado — T. Pinto, D. Silva , F. Pinto, Norton — J. Silva, Encarnacao
