Team news: Spain W have doubts over the fitness of centre-back Ivana Andres.
Catalina Coll is set to keep her place in goal while Oihane Hernandez and Esther Gonzalez should also keep their places in the team.
Netherlands W will be without defender Merel van Dongen, who has an ankle injury.
Danielle van de Donk is suspended and that means Damaris Egurrola could come into the starting XI.
Spain W have some excellent individual talent but their performance against Japan W suggests this is going to be a tricky game for the Spanish.
Netherlands W have been strong throughout the competition and could win this match without conceding a goal.
