Morocco make one change to their line-up from their win on penalties over Ghana, bringing in hugely experienced 37-year-old Najat Badri for Elodie Nakkach in midfield.

Midfielder Fatima Tagnaout, who came off the bench in that game but was forced off through injury, is replaced among the substitutes by forward Imene El Ghazouani.

Prolific striker Ibtissam Jraïdi has three goals at the final and has been the top scorer in the Saudi Women's Premier League for Al-Ahli in each of the past two seasons, having scored Morocco’s first ever goal at a Women’s World Cup in 2023.

Ghizlane Chebbak, who plays in the Spanish Liga F for Levante Badalona, picked up where she left off after winning player of the tournament at the 2022 edition, scoring all four of her goals this time around in Morocco’s first two matches, including a hat-trick against DR Congo.

Valencia centre-back Yasmin Mrabet was also part of the team who reached the 2022 final and has put away two penalties on the Atlas Lionesses’ run to the final.

Starting XI: Errmichi, Ait Elhaj, Benzina, Rebbah, Redouani, Mrabet, Ouzraoui, Badri, Chebbak, Mssoudy, Jraidi

Subs: Boukhami, Kassi, Nakkach, Chapelle, Seghir, Lahmari, Saoud, Arouaissaa, Hasnaoui, El Ghazouaniei

Nigeria also have one amendment to their XI, introducing 21-year-old midfielder Deborah Abiodun for Paris Saint-Germain’s Jennifer Echegini.

Chinwendu Ihezuo was a Mexican champion with Pachuca last season and has scored three goals so far, while 2022 finals top scorer Rasheedat Ajibade, of Atletico Madrid, opened her account in the semi-final win over holders South Africa.

Houston Dash’s Michelle Alozie scored the 94th-minute winner in that game. Six-time African Women's Footballer of the Year and 2015 BBC Women's Footballer of the Year Asisat Oshoala remains on the bench.

Starting XI: Nnadozie, Alozie, Ohale, Demehin, Plumptre, Ijamilusi, Ayinde, Abiodun, Ajibade, Okoronkwo, Ihezuo

Subs: Ucheibe, Isah, Abiodun, Oluehi, Echegini, Babajide, Oladipo, Payne, Oshoala, Onumonu, Okafor
