New Zealand and Canada are set to face off in the 2025 Women's Rugby World Cup Semi-Final on Friday at Ashton Gate Stadium.

New Zealand ended their group stage atop the Pool C table with three wins in three games as they managed to oust Ireland, Japan and Spain, while boasting three bonus points. The defending champions are now looking for their seventh World Cup title, and managed to reach the semi-final with a massive 46-17 Quarter-Final win over South Africa.

Canada were yet another one of those teams to end up winning all of their games through the group stage. They ended up beating Scotland, Fiji and Wales in what was a relatively easy Pool B, and also cruised to a 16-5 Quarter-Final hammering of Australia.
