The winner of this match will face either Japan or Sweden in the semi-finals in Auckland on Tuesday.
Spain have already played Japan in the group stages of the competition, suffering a heavy 4-0 defeat.
The 2011 world champions Japan scored three goals before half-time, with Hinata Miyazawa netting twice.
Sweden were runners-up in the Olympic Games and were knocked out by England in the semi-finals of last summer's Euros.

Against Switzerland it was the Spain that we know - that like to keep the ball, move around, work together as a team.
The difference between the Spain against Switzerland and the Spain we saw against Japan was that they were really precise with the ball, really accurate and really clinical in front of goal. That made the difference.

Spain have won their past three games in all competitions against the Netherlands, scoring a total of five goals and conceding none in the process.
Despite playing just 190 of the 360 minutes available so far at the World Cup, no player has scored more goals for Spain than Alba Redondo, who has three goals and one assist - meaning she is averaging a goal involvement once every 48 minutes.
Jill Roord has scored four goals for the Netherlands at this World Cup, the most by a Dutch player in a single tournament.

This World Cup is wide open. All eight remaining teams will believe they can win it from here, and every quarter-final is going to be extremely close.
Spain have scored plenty of goals so far at this tournament but I've been really impressed by the Netherlands' all-round play.
They are both in good form I don't think you'd consider either of these teams to be the favourite to progress, which makes my job of predicting the winner very tricky!
I see it going the distance, with the Dutch just about edging it in extra-time.
Brown-Finnis' prediction: 0-1 after extra time.
'They already had a big mouth'

Netherlands forward Lineth Beerensteyn says she celebrated the USA's World Cup exit as the defending champions had "a really big mouth".
The USA beat the Dutch in the 2019 final but were defeated by Sweden on penalties on Sunday.
The four-time winners' last-16 exit was their worst performance at a World Cup.
"The first moment when I heard that they were out, I was just thinking, 'Yes! Bye!'" said Beerynsteyn.
"From the start of this tournament they already had a really big mouth. They were talking already about the final and stuff.
"I was just thinking, 'you first have to show it on the pitch before you are talking'."
'We worry about our players'

Spain boss Jorge Vilda said his side were "united" despite a turbulent build-up to the tournament, which saw 15 players involved in a dispute.
Damaris Egurrola said she had issues with Vilda after she made the switch to the Netherlands.
Asked about Egurrola, Vilda said: "We worry about our players and the players that we can include in the line-up and I would not change any of my 23 players for anyone else.
"We have a group that competes and they are all fighting for the same objective, and they're very motivated."

The Netherlands manager Andries Jonker said they "know everything" about their opponents because midfielder Damaris Egurrola, a former Spain youth international, has passed on information.
There are also several players with experience of Spanish football in the Netherlands squad including defender Merel van Dongen, currently at Atletico Madrid, and Stefanie van der Gragt and Lieke Martens, who both enjoyed spells at Barcelona.
"I think they won't surprise us," said Jonker. "We spoke with our players, and of course Damaris, who knows a lot about Spain.
"Our scouting team did its job. We know everything about Spain. We have a small book about them.
"We hope it will be helpful, but then in the end, you don't win a game in the preparation. You have to win it on the pitch."
Japan in 'unstoppable' form

"I was watching it on television at home," Japan boss Futoshi Ikeda recalls when asked about memories of his nation's 2011 Women's World Cup triumph.
"The Japanese earthquake had just happened, so in that sense it was a tournament that gave everyone courage, and conveyed the joy and the greatness of sport."
Japan's momentous triumph in Germany 12 years ago was as emotional as it was unexpected.
Three months before the tournament, a devastating earthquake and tsunami along the country's north-east coast killed more than 18,000 people, displaced tens of thousands and generated a tsunami which caused a nuclear meltdown at the Fukushima power plant.

Good morning!
Spain v Netherlands (02:00 BST)
It's a bright and early one as the Netherlands and Spain go head-to-head for a place in the Women's World Cup semi-finals.
Unbeaten so far, 2019 finalists the Netherlands finished top of their group and have only conceded one goal.
But they come up against a free-scoring Spain side who, aside from a heavy defeat by Japan, have looked pretty dangerous.
Two-time Ballon d'Or winner Alexia Putellas is also getting back to full fitness - but which of the big hitters will make it through today?
