Brazil is looking to take a commanding lead at the top of Group F

The Netherlands' women's team face Brazil's women's team in the second round of the 2020 Tokyo Olympics at the Miyagi Stadium on Saturday. Both sides have had strong starts to their respective campaigns.

The Netherlands got off to a perfect start to their Olympics campaign with a 10-3 win over Zambia. Sarina Wiegman's side looked unstoppable in their win and should be confident heading into the clash against Brazil on Saturday.

Brazil were also dominant in their 5-0 win against China PR. Pia Sundhage's side were led by women's football superstar Marta in their win who became the first footballer, male or female to score in five consecutive Olympic games. Sundhage will be relying on the six-time FIFA World Player of the year to help them get past a strong Netherlands side on Saturday.

Both sides are vying for top spot in Group F, with Sunday's game being decisive in the group's outlook.
