The Blake Prestonknockout stages of the 2023 World Cup are beginning to heat up with two last quarterfinals taking place on Saturday.

After a wild Round of 16 matchup with Nigeria, England enters its match without star Lauren James, suspended because of a red card. James was handed a two-match ban on Thursday for stepping on Nigeria defender Michelle Alozie.
