The Matildas have an extra edge over China in head-to-head history

The last four teams have qualified for the AFC Women’s Asian Cup 2026 semi-finals in Australia. The semi-final stage is set to kick off on March 17, 2026. A place in the final of the AFC Women’s Asian Cup Australia 2026 will be on the line when the China Women’s National Team locks horns against the hosts Australia Women’s National Team on March 17, 2026, from 15:30 IST at HBF Park, Perth.

This will be the first semi-final match played in the AFC Women’s Asian Cup 2026 after they successfully won in the quarters against big teams. China Women’s Team will look to defend their title as they won the silverware in the previous edition. On the other hand, the Matildas are the hosts of this edition. Both teams have already secured their seat for the upcoming FIFA Women’s World Cup 2027.

What to expect from the clash?

Defending champions China will look to defend their title as visitors against Australia in Perth. The home crowd for the Matildas will cause a headache for the Asian giants. They will enter the pitch against Australia as favourites, as they knock out Chinese Taipei in the quarter finals with a score line of 2-0. Scoring two major goals and also ending the match with a clean sheet in the quarter finals was not so easy for them. China’s Women’s Team reached the semi-finals after producing consistent performances throughout the tournament. Against Australia, their forward Sam Kerr will be a key threat to the Chinese defence. She is known for her clinical finishing as she scored three goals. Also, Alanna Kennedy is the highest goal scorer in the campaign right now with five goals. She will knock on the doors for sure against China.

Meanwhile, Australia has their home support, which could add an extra edge over the tie against China. The Matildas knocked out Korea DPR, with a good margin, as they remembered it as one of the toughest opponents in this tournament. China’s midfield line will haunt them, so they need to be on their toes to protect their defensive line. They heavily depend on collective energy. The semi-final is expected to be an intense tactical battle.

The head-to-head history between these two national teams will shake you up, as they have played over 19 games. Australia has an extra edge over China. Australia won nine games, and China won just four.
