MATCH PREDICTION
In 2004 and 2008, Brazil finished as silver medallists and that remains their best performances at the Summer Olympics. However, with Marta still a part of their squad albeit suspended for the quarter-finals and semi-finals, the Brazilians are back in a final completely against the general run of play and expectation after a disappointing group stage was followed by a defeat of hosts France and then world champions Spain. The United States needed extra-time to defeat Germany in the semi-finals but, under the management of former Chelsea boss Emma Hayes, the USWNT have been magnificent in the last couple of weeks and, despite the Brazilian resurgence, USA are favourites.
