Australia will look to advance to the quarter-finals of the Women’s World Cup as they host Denmark at a sold-out Olympic Stadium in Sydney. The World Cup co-hosts survived a ‘do or die’ clash with Canada to progress to the knockout stages in style, thrashing the Olympic champions 4-0 to finish top of Group B . The Matildas could be boosted by the return of star striker and captain Sam Kerr , who missed all three group games due to injury but could be back for the knockout stages. Denmark are led by Kerr’s former Chelsea team-mate Pernille Harder and reached the last-16 after finishing runner-up to England in Group B. The early exits of Germany, the USA and Brazil have opened up the World Cup and now Australia and Denmark have an opportunity to make a claim.
