Canada and England are very used to playing one another as they prepare to face off in the quarterfinals of the 2015 Women's World Cup tournament. Both teams have faced each other in each of the last three Cyprus Cup tournaments. England has the tournament wins, but Canada got the most recent victory in a friendly prior to the tournament. Now they both face off again looking to secure a top four finish. 

Canada has been feeling the pressure to get into the semifinals considering they are the host team of the tournament. The team is fresh off a shutout win over Switzerland thanks to a second-half goal from Josee Belanger. That has been the story for Canada in this tournament as they have been relying on big moments from players to get by. They came in ranked eight in the world and have looked like a much strong team than in years past. 

"Obviously they've got a lot of pressure with the whole of Canada watching them," Ellen White said, via ProSoccerTalk.com I think they've probably grown as the tournaments go on. Gained confidence and momentum. I think they've got some very good players. Very good attacking player and they're good defensively. It's going to be a difficult game for us, but we know each other quite well. It's going to be a very exciting game and it's a semi-final at stake. It's a big, big game."

Meanwhile, England comes into the tournament looking to grow the women's game by reaching the semifinals. The team is fresh off a match where they were forced to come from behind and beat Norway 2-1. Karen Carney facilitated most of the team's offense as she will be a key player to watch in this match. England has lacked some impressive games in this tournament. They lost their opener to France before beating Colombia and Mexico. 

The rivalry brewing between these two teams will make this a fun game to watch. Canada knocked out Team Great Britain in the 2012 London Olympics while they have had several back and forth matchups throughout the recent tournament runs. That will play a big role in Saturday's game.
