Defending champions the United States are seeking a fourth title and are ranked number one in the world.
Hosts France have never gone beyond the semi-finals of the World Cup and have only reached the last eight at the European Championship. However, they are ranked fourth in the world and are hoping to replicate the success of the men's team, who won in Russia last year.
Olympic champions Germany are also a threat. The side were knocked out in the semi-finals in 2015 - and in the quarter-finals of the European Championship in 2017 - but remain number two in the world.
World number seven Japan were World Cup winners in 2011 and runners-up in 2015, while European champions the Netherlands could also challenge for the title.
England, who won the SheBelieves Cup for the first time in March, are among the favourites having finished third at the World Cup in 2015.
They are ranked third in the world and beat Japan and Brazil in America earlier this year. They also drew with the United States but suffered a disappointing defeat to Canada in a friendly last month.
Manager Phil Neville said in March he believed this generation of players could go on to "dominate world football".
Scotland, who are ranked 20th in the world, are competing in their first World Cup but have gone four games unbeaten this year, including a memorable victory over Brazil in a friendly last month.
It was only the second time any Scottish team has beaten Brazil at any level, following a success for the men's under-20s at the 2017 Toulon Tournament.
On their chances in France, manager Shelley Kerr said: "I don't think we're dark horses".

Ballon d'Or winner Ada Hegerberg has not been included in Norway's squad for the World Cup but a few of her Lyon team-mates could be on show, including England's Lucy Bronze and Japan defender Saki Kumagai.
Manchester City duo Steph Houghton and Nikita Parris could play a big role for England, alongside Barcelona's Toni Duggan and Chelsea striker Fran Kirby.
Arsenal's Kim Little and Chelsea's Erin Cuthbert will be key attacking players for Scotland, while Manchester City's Caroline Weir is also one to watch.
The United States have a squad bursting with talent and experience with the likes of Alex Morgan and Megan Rapinoe. It is also expected to be 36-year-old Carli Lloyd's last tournament - the former Manchester City midfielder was Fifa World Player of the Year and the Golden Ball winner at the World Cup in 2015.
Australia captain and forward Sam Kerr guided her country to their first Cup of Nations in March, while PFA Player of the Year Vivianne Miedema is a leading figure for the Netherlands.
And Orlando Pride forward Marta, who won the Best Female Player Award in September, is the driving force behind an ageing Brazilian team.
