Canada could find itself facing two top-10 teams in pool play when it opens defence of its Olympic women's soccer title this summer in Paris.

Canada has faced Spain just three times in the past, with two losses and one tie since 2017. Spain won 1-0 last time they met, in February 2022 at the Arnold Clark Cup in Wolverhampton, England. Canada has played the Matildas five times since September 2022, winning four of the meetings. But the one loss was a 4-0 defeat in Melbourne that ended the Canadian campaign at last summer's World Cup in humbling fashion.

The African teams will be determined in the final round of qualifying April 1-9 when No. 65 Zambia plays No. 58 Morocco and No. 36 Nigeria faces No. 51 South Africa in separate two-legged series.At the Tokyo Olympics, the Canadian women were drawn with host Japan , No. 37 Chile and Britain, which is not ranked by FIFA, in Group E.
