Spain vs. USA: Odds, Live Stream, TV Info for Women's World Cup 2019
The U.S. are strong favourites to brush aside Spain in the last 16 of the 2019 FIFA Women's World Cup on Monday.
The world champions sauntered through Group F, winning all three of their matches and scoring 18 goals in the process, offering a timely reminder of the power and quality in Jill Ellis' squad.
By contrast, Spain didn't have it all their own way in Group B, losing to Germany and drawing 0-0 with China. Goals have been a problem for Jorge Vilda's team, but in classy No. 10 Jennifer Hermoso, he has a player capable of causing a shock against the tournament favourites.

Odds per Oddschecker.
The United States' prolific output is thanks to a deep and gifted contingent of attacking talents. Carli Lloyd, Alex Morgan, Megan Rapinoe and Christen Press are just some of the notable match-winners at Ellis' disposal.
They have also benefited from the enterprising play of Lindsey Horan, who showcased her finishing quality by netting the fastest goal of the tournament during Thursday's 2-0 win over Sweden:
Horan and Lloyd can keep the supply lines open for a forward line likely to continue its recent scoring run.
If there's one danger for the U.S., it would be allowing Hermoso to dictate play. The Atletico Madrid Femenino star has been on target twice from the penalty spot in the competition.
Hermoso's technique and guile make her the ideal creative hub for Vilda's style of play. Her deft backheel touches and quick feet have already provided several moments to wow the crowds in France.
Aside from her natural flair, Hermoso is never shy about taking on chances when they come her way in the final third:
Keeping Hermoso quiet is the key to the U.S. advancing to the last eight. Yet with so many goals in the team, it's hard to believe the champions will be stopped.
