2019 Women’s World Cup Group E Betting
The most underrated group at the Women’s World Cup is Group E. This is the only group that doesn’t have a team that made it to a prior World Cup Final, but two of the teams in this group are ranked in the top seven according to the latest FIFA rankings. Canada and the Netherlands are expected to make it to the knockout stages and have recent successes to their credit, while Cameroon and New Zealand are solid teams in their own right.

Group Teams Profiles
Canada
FIFA Ranking: 5
World Cup Appearances: 7
Best Finish: Fourth Place in 2003
A lot was expected of Canada at the last Women’s World Cup. Unfortunately, the host curse that has plagued the recent competitions but the Canadians too. Canada only won one game in the Group Stage and was knocked out by England in the quarterfinals.
It’s incredible that Christine Sinclair is still playing at a high level at the age of 36. Sinclair is the most capped player in the world that didn’t play for the US with an incredible 280 caps and her 180 career goals are four behind Abby Wambach for most all-time. Sophie Schmidt, Desiree Scott, and Erin McLeod all have a lot of international experience too.
Netherlands
FIFA Ranking: 7
World Cup Appearances: 2
Best Finish: Round of 16 in 2015
This is the most intriguing team at the Women’s World Cup. The Netherlands made its debut at the 2015 World Cup in Canada, and they made it out of the Group Stage but no further. However, they wiped the floor with the field on their way to winning the 2017 Euros, beating Sweden, England, and Denmark by multiple goals in the knockout stages.
We haven’t seen much from this team since their European title, but most of that team returns including stars Vivianne Miedema, Lieke Martens, and Danielle van de Donk.
New Zealand
FIFA Ranking: 19
World Cup Appearances: 5
Best Finish: Group Stage in 1991, 2007, 2011, and 2015
The Football Ferns are looking for their first-ever win at the Women’s World Cup. They have slowly gotten better with each subsequent appearance. In their first two appearances, they failed to get a result and were outscored 20-1. They have three draws in their last two trips to the World Cup though, and a first win could lead to a first appearance in the knockout rounds.
New Zealand can punch its World Cup ticket every four years as the lone heavyweight in the OFC. Australia left the federation for the Asian federation over a decade ago, and it’s been all New Zealand since that point. They defeated Argentina and Norway in the run-up to the World Cup, but this team goes largely untested with all its OFC games. Sarah Gregorius and Rosie White are the two to watch up top, while Ali Riley, Abby Erceg, Annalie Longo, Betsy Hassett, and Katie Duncan all have more than 100 caps.
Cameroon
FIFA Ranking: 46
World Cup Appearances: 2
Best Finish: Round of 16 in 2015
Cameroon stunned Switzerland in the Group Stage of the last World Cup to make it to the knockout round in their debut. They will be hard-pressed to repeat that performance in this group though.
The Indomitable Lionesses still have one of the most talented players in the world in Gaelle Enganamouit, and they have two other talented forwards in Gabrielle Onguene and Madeleine Ngono Mani. Enganamouit is in her prime, but the other two are on the wrong side of 30.

The United States has been the juggernaut of women’s soccer since the first World Cup in 1991. The Stars and Stripes have won more World Cups than any other country, and they are the only team to have made it to the semifinals in all seven previous tournaments. Team USA is the only squad to have won a World Cup on their home turf, with Brandi Chastain firing home the winning penalty over China at the Rose Bowl in 1999.
Germany has had the second-most success at the Women’s World Cup. The German women are the only back-to-back winners in the history of the tournament, claiming the title in 2003 and 2007. They made it to the semifinals back in 2015 before losing to the US.
The French have yet to make it to a Women’s World Cup final. France is a recent power in the game, and their club teams are the best in the world. Olympique Lyon has won five of the last eight Champions Leagues, and they have made it to the finals in seven of the last nine years.
Unfortunately, the best player in the game today will not be taking part in the Women’s World Cup. Ada Hegerberg has decided that she will not play for Norway at the tournament, and she has not played for the national team in nearly two years.
