France play Norway on Wednesday, June 12 at the Stade de Nice in Nice, France. Here’s what you need to know before tuning in.

After posting an emphatic 4-0 win against South Korea in the tournament opener, France again hope to take over the spotlight at this World Cup with a victory against traditional women’s soccer power Norway in Nice.

Les Bleus played with a confidence and swagger that bodes well as they attempt to win their country’s first Women’s World Cup just a year after the men’s team captured their second title ever in Russia.

Wendie Renard, Amandine Henry and Eugenie Le Sommer, who all scored in the opener, looked unstoppable against South Korea. Expect this trio to turn it on once again, although Norway’s defense should be able to do a better job trying to contain the French attack.

Norway, meanwhile, are without star striker Ada Hegerberg, winner of this year’s Ballon d’Or as the world’s best player, who is sitting out the tournament in protest. She has been upset with the way her country’s soccer federation treats the women’s team compared to the men’s squad in regards to salaries and other amenities. Nonetheless, Norway cruised to a 3-0 victory against Nigeria this past Saturday.

Norway, currently No. 12 in the FIFA rankings, are favored, along with the French, to advance to the knockout stage. Both France and Norway can advance to the round of 16 with a win. A draw would also help both teams in their quest for the knockout stage.
