Preview
The American team enters Tuesday's match coming off a shock 1-0 loss against England, their first defeat of 2017 and first loss on home soil since 2015.
Ellen White scored the only goal of the contest, capitalising on a defensive mistake late in the match. Here's a look at the highlights of that match, via the team's official Twitter account:
It was a disappointing setback, but not a loss that should be taken too harshly. While the SheBelieves Cup is quickly gaining in importance, it's still mostly a friendly tournament, giving all four teams the chance to experiment with tactics and new players in anticipation of more important outings in the near future.
The Stars and Stripes did exactly that, giving some of their less-heralded players a chance to shine. Rose Lavelle made a superb impression on her debut, for instance, winning the player of the match award.
The fans also came out in force, something Carli Lloyd acknowledged afterwards:
National pride will be at stake on Tuesday in Washington D.C., however, and in all likelihood, coach Jill Ellis will give up her desire to experiment some more in favour of chasing silverware in front of the home fans.
Few teams in women's football can rival the U.S. in terms of raw talent, but France come close. Star forward Eugenie Le Sommer is one of the most dangerous scorers in the game today, and she and Camille Abily lead the way for Les Bleus in the post-Louisa Necib Cadamuro era.
The U.S. will try to answer through Alex Morgan and Christen Press, two talented forwards who have the ability to wreak havoc with their movement. France can struggle with keeping track of opponents out wide at times, and it's something the Stars and Stripes should try to take advantage of.

The midfield battle will also be worth keeping an eye on―unlike most teams, France have shown a willingness to engage the U.S. in the past and push for possession, rather than wait things out and counter.
If the hosts can control the ball the way Germany did in their scoreless draw with Les Bleus, it should lead to plenty of looks in front of goal, particularly from crosses. The Stars and Stripes rarely suffer back-to-back setbacks at home―expect Ellis' troops to bounce back with a win.
Final prediction: USA 2-1 France
