Preview

There is no doubt that the tie of the round is in Paris, where France and the United States, two teams still with perfect records at the tournament, meet in an eagerly anticipated clash.

The hosts topped Group A with wins over Norway, Nigeria and South Korea and followed that up by knocking out Brazil thanks to an extra-time winner from captain Amandine Henry.

The skipper has said her team will go on the attack against the U.S.:

The holders romped through their group, smashing Thailand 13-0, putting three past Chile and finishing off with a 2-0 win over Sweden.

Yet they found it much tougher going against Spain in the last 16. Jill Ellis' side were far from their best and needed two Megan Rapinoe penalties to progress.

The 33-year-old has offered her thoughts on the fixture:

Neither team particularly impressed in the last 16 and will know they must improve if they are to make it through to the final four.

France are eyeing their first World Cup and will enjoy plenty of support on home turf, while the United States are aiming to win the tournament for a record fourth time.

Meanwhile, Italy and the Netherlands are both hoping to make it to the semi-finals for the first time.

Le Azzurre are seen as the tournament's dark horses and topped a tough group containing Brazil and Australia, while the Netherlands are the European champions and have won all four of their games in France.

The game should contain plenty of attacking talent. Italy strikers Aurora Galli and Cristiana Girelli both have three goals, while Juventus star Barbara Bonansea has two.

Valentina Giacinti is also in good form for the national side:

Meanwhile, the Netherlands will look to 2017 FIFA World Player of the Year Lieke Martens for attacking inspiration.

The Barcelona forward scored both of her side's goals in their last-16 win over Japan, opening the scoring in some style (U.S. only):

The last quarter-final is another all-European affair between Germany and Sweden. Germany topped Group B with three wins and then crushed Nigeria 3-0 in the round of 16.

The two-time World Cup winners will be favourites to progress against a Swedish team that finished second behind the United States in Group F and narrowly beat Canada 1-0 in the last 16.
