Pick of the Day
It's Ireland v Sweden (KO 7.30pm) in the Group A3 match at Aviva Stadium in Dublin, as Eileen Gleeson's side host the team that came third in the 2023 FIFA World Cup.
Despite two competitive displays, Ireland lost their opening two matches of this campaign, away to France and at home to England.
Sweden is also without a win against the same opponents, but they did earn what could prove to be a valuable point away to the English in their opener.
Marie Crowe (above) presents, with analysis from Aine O'Gorman and Lisa Fallon, and commentary by George Hamilton and Stephanie Roche.
