The USWNT continue their quest for gold as they square off against Germany in the semifinals at the 2024 Paris Olympics on Tuesday. Trinity Rodman was the hero in the quarterfinals as her goal in extra time lifted the USA to a 1-0 win against Japan and extended their unbeaten streak in the tournament. Meanwhile, Germany held on to advance past defending gold medalists Canada in the quarterfinals thanks to stellar play from goalie Ann-Katrin Berger.
Kickoff at Parc des Princes is set for noon ET. Team USA are -110 favorites (risk $110 to win $100) on the 90-minute money line in the latest USWNT vs. Germany odds, while Germany are +300 underdogs. A 90-minute draw is priced at +240 and the over/under for total goals scored is 2.5. The USWNT are -225 favorites to advance, while Germany are +160. Before locking in any Germany vs. USWNT picks, you need to see what proven SportsLine soccer expert Martin Green has to say .
After working in the sports betting industry for several years, Green became a professional sports writer and handicapper and has covered the game worldwide. In 2023, Green was profitable in multiple areas on his soccer picks, including the Champions League (+3.05 units), FA Cup (+3.07), EFL Cup (+4.47) and Euro 2024 Qualifiers (+6.30), among others. He was also solid on his Premier League picks in 2023-24 going 30-22-1 (+7.07).
Now, Green has broken down Germany vs. USWNT from every angle and revealed his picks and predictions. You can head to SportsLine now to see Green's picks . Here are the betting lines and trends for USWNT vs. Germany:
USWNT vs. Germany money line: USA -110, Germany +300, Draw +240
USWNT vs. Germany over/under: 2.5 goals
USWNT vs. Germany to advance: USA -225, Germany +160
USA: The Americans have won 13 straight across all competitions
GER: Advanced past defending gold medalists Canada to get to the semifinals
The United States will be full of confidence after Rodman punched their ticket to the semifinals, and they should be hungry to find the back of the net multiple times after being mostly stunned by Japan's defense. Saturday's match marked the first time Mallory Swanson hasn't found the back of the net in the Paris Games, and we can expect her and Sophia Smith to be extra hungry to score on Tuesday.
The USWNT also has the benefit of their overall series record against the Germans. The USA is 24-7-5 in 36 games against Germany and just defeated them 4-1 in the group stage of the Summer Games last week. See which team to pick here .
Why you should back Germany
Green believes goalie Ann-Katrin Berger will have to have another big game if Germany is going to have any chance of upsetting the heavily-favored American side on Tuesday. He also expects they will be more competitive in the semifinal round than when these teams faced off in the group stage last week.
Germany is capable of having high-scoring games, as they showed in the group stage when they blanked Australia 3-0 and beat Zambia 4-1. Forward Lea Schuller scored a brace in Germany's victory over Zambia and racked up 11 goals and five assists for Bayern Munich in the Frauen-Bundesliga last season. See which team to pick here .
