After two incredible semifinal matches, USA and Netherlands will meet in the 2019 Women’s World Cup Final. USA are the clear -500 favorites to hoist the trophy and now up to -260 to win it in regulation.

New research shows the Netherlands can expect to create more than 500,000 new jobs during the next six years. The problem is, the Netherlands has a rapidly aging demographic, with more people retiring than entering the workforce. There is projected to be 1.2 million people to fill 1.6 million job openings by 2020. The United States women's team look to join Germany as the only nation to win the World Cup twice in a row, but to do so they'll have to get past an up-and-coming Dutch side that's held their last.
The USA entered this year's World Cup as the +350 co-favorites to hoist the trophy, even odds with the French team. The Netherlands were listed fifth on the board at odds of +1500 (risk $100 to.

Netherlands Usa Odds Chart
Netherlands: The number 4 FIFA ranked team will be without prolific goal scorer Vivianne Miedema. The Arsenal striker had to withdraw from camp due to a hip injury. The roster is still full of players currently in form with domestic clubs and capable of providing an impact on the pitch. Look for Sherida Spitse or Arsenal's Jill Roord to make things difficult for the U.S. in the midfield if they're tasked with starts.
USWNT: 2020 has impacted all aspects of the game globally as the team finally gets to play their first match after 261 days. Christen Press, Tobin Heath, Alex Morgan, Sam Mewis, Rose Lavelle, and Emily Sonnet are all currently playing on loan in Europe and are the players likely to be most in form and have an impact in this match. 8 months is a long time for the reigning World Cup champions and number one ranked team in the world to have been absent from international play. There will be rust, but there will also be lots of pent up energy to motivate them as well.

Prediction
It won't be pretty and there will moments where the rust has to be kicked off, but it'll be USA over Netherlands this holiday. Pick: USA 1, Netherlands 0
The reigning World and European champions square off in Lyon on Sunday - a mouthwatering prospect for punters.
USA knocked England out of the competition to reach this stage while Netherlands came through their semi-final against Sweden in extra-time.
Latest odds
Having won their last 11 consecutive Women's World Cup matches, USA are 4/9 (1.44) favourites to retain their crown with a victory in normal time.
Editors' Picks
The Oranje won their first major title at Euro 2017, beating Denmark on home soil. This is a much tougher ask against the best team in the world though, and bet365 make them 7/1 (8.0) underdogs to come out on top and 3/1 (4.0) to lift the trophy.
A draw between the sides after 90 minutes is also 3/1 (4.0) with the same firm.
Team News
Megan Rapinoe missed the semi-final win over England due to a hamstring injury. The 33-year-old may come back into the starting line-up given her five-goal haul in the competition so far.
Lineth Beerensteyn came into the starting line-up for the win over Sweden but it remains to be seen if the Bayern Munich forward did enough to retain her place.
Preview
USA's pedigree on the world stage is unrivalled. While Jill Ellis' side started the competition with a record-breaking 13-0 win over Thailand, their recent performances have been gritty, but ultimately successful.
Both teams to score has paid out in each of the holders' three knockout games in France and looks a solid selection at Evens (2.0) for the showpiece finale.
Netherlands have often done much of their best work late on in matches. Prior to the extra-time goal scored by Jackie Groenen, the Oranje had scored eight of their 10 World Cup goals after half time. bet365 go 21/20 (2.05) that the second half is the highest scoring in Lyon.
Predictions
The case for backing USA to come out on top is an obvious one. The reigning champions are the best team and have the experience of high-pressure finals on this stage.
Despite that, USA are unlikely to appeal to most punters as a 4/9 (1.44) chance but adding both teams to score pays 5/2 (3.50) with bet365.
Netherlands have enough firepower to trouble the favourites but with less rest and having played an additional 30 minutes in their semi-final, they look likely to come up short.
Given this selection has paid out in all of USA's knockout matches in France this summer, they're well worth backing to shade a high-scoring clash.
