Brazil and Jamaica face off in the last game of the group stage, and assuming France routes Panama, this game will decide who moves forward.
Jamaica leads Brazil by just one point, so they can tie and advance. However, Brazil will be quite the tall task.
They are the much better squad and are currently -420 favorites. It’s not a question of if Brazil wins, its a matter of by how many.
Let’s break this one down.
Brazil vs Jamaica Group Recap
Jamaica drew with France, nil-nil, in their opening matchup, which was a victory in their eyes. Gaining one point against the group favorite is huge for this team.
They beat Panama, as they should’ve, but only by one goal. They will rely on their defense to slow down Brazil and play for the point.
Brazil beat down Panama 4-0 in their opening matchup, but lost to France in their second game. They lost 2-1 off a late corner kick goal in the 83rd minute, and now they face a win or go home situation.

Brazil vs Jamaica Prediction
This is Brazil’s game to lose, and they know they need to come out aggressive. Stud Midfielder Debinha has a goal and an assist through two games of competition.
They should look for her to show out in this do or die contest.
Jamaica is outmatched, ranking 43rd in the FIFA World Rankings while Brazil is in the Top 10. However, they are one point ahead and have the advantage.
With a draw, Jamaica moves on and sends Brazil packing. If they’re defense can survive the Brazilian attack, they may move forward.
Best Bets
Brazil to Win to Nil (-110) Bovada
I will be waking up to watch this match and cheer on the Brazilians.
I think they come out firing and never look back.
There defense is also sound, only allowing two French goals and shutting out Panama. With Jamaica being known for their defense, I don’t see them scoring in this one, however I think Brazil can net at least two.
Assuming France beats Panama, this would be for second place in the group, however if something crazy happens, the winner of this could claim the top spot.
I believe Brazil knows this and blows out the Jamaicans.
