Match Preview

Italy are competing at the World Cup for the first time in 20 years but have never made it to the semi-finals of the tournament before.

Milena Bertolini's side are defensively strong and have conceded only two goals in four games, while in attack their energy and creativity has seen them net nine times.

Striker Cristiana Girelli has three goals, but there will be concern over her fitness after she was replaced after 39 minutes of their win over China.

Aurora Galli took her place and scored Italy's second goal in the win to maintain the fine form she has shown at the tournament:

Italy also have Juventus striker Barbara Bonansea and the in-form Valentina Giacinti available, and they may relish taking on a Dutch defence that has looked vulnerable at the World Cup:

Yet the Netherlands possess a strong record against Italy and have won each of the last five meetings between the two nations.

Barcelona forward Lieke Martens will pose a threat and has already lit up the tournament with her goal against Japan (U.S. only):

That victory propelled the team into the World Cup quarter-finals for the first time, and manager Sarina Wiegman says her team want to "continue writing history," per BBC Sport.

Yet the Dutch have only managed one clean sheet in four games, and their defence was carved open by Japan in their last game, as noted by Simon Gleave at Gracenote Sports:

Italy have the attacking talent to cause the Dutch problems at the back, but Wiegman's team will not lack for confidence after four wins on the trot, which should make for an entertaining quarter-final clash.
