The Philippines and Switzerland Women will meet at Forsyth Barr in their opening match at the 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup on Thursday.
The Swiss national team goes into the match on the back of a goalless draw against Morocco in a pre-tournament friendly match two weeks ago. Meanwhile, the Philippines has not participated in a match since its 2-1 victory over Vietnam at the Southeast Asian Games in May.
Switzerland qualified for the World Cup by defeating Wales 2-1 in a play-off. Fabian Hamm scored a dramatic win in extra time to help her country qualify for the second time in their history. The Philippines qualified for the semi-finals of the 2022 AFC Women’s Asian Cup, as it qualified for the World Cup for the first time in its history.
Norway and New Zealand are the two teams that complete the quadruple in Group B.

Philippines women vs switzerland women expect
The Philippines is one of eight countries participating in the FIFA Women’s World Cup for the first time. A positive result in their opening match will give them confidence in their ability to continue making history in the tournament.
Switzerland have experience defying expectations in their first World Cup appearance, reaching the quarter-finals in 2015. However, their form heading into this tournament hasn’t been impressive, and they are currently going eight matches without a win.
