Preview

The Dutch appear in their first ever World Cup final against a team who know this part of the tournament so well.

Jill Ellis' squad looked good in the group phase, but they have ramped up their form during the knockout stage.

Eliminating Spain, France and England in the knockouts was a statement of intent by the Americans.

The Oranje Leeuwinnen are the surprise package of the tournament, and the draw was kind to them after they qualified from Group E with a perfect record.

A 2-1 win over Japan booked a place in the quarter-finals, and a composed 2-0 victory against Italy allowed the Dutch to make the last four.

Running into Sweden in the semi-finals was preferable after the Swedes eliminated Germany.

The Netherlands attack was not at its best, but a 1-0 win gave the Dutch a chance at world glory.

However, beating the holders will be an incredibly tough task, with the biggest prize in the game the ultimate reward.

According to Rory Smith of the New York Times, Netherlands and Arsenal midfielder Jill Roord said her team can cause one of the biggest shocks in the history of the women's game:

"They have a lot of quality, especially in attack. But then so does England, and they had a lot of chances [in the semi-final]. It is a dream for us to play them, but it is a final, and anything is possible. We can beat them."

The U.S will have to wait on the fitness of key forward Megan Rapinoe, with the player believing she will be ready after sitting out the 2-1 semi-final victory over England.

Per Seth Vertelney of Goal, Rapinoe said on Saturday she's on her way to recovering from a hamstring knock: "As of now I'm expecting to be ready for tomorrow, I feel good. That's all I can really say right now."

Victory will see the U.S. crowned four-time world champions, extending their record haul ahead of two-time winners Germany. The accolade would be fully deserved after their dominance since the last World Cup.

Ellis' women remain the No. 1 ranked side in the world, and no one has been able to catch them over an extended period.

The unfancied Dutch could offer a goal threat through Vivianne Miedema, but the U.S. have a phenomenal attack that can score against any defence on the planet.
