- Analysis
- France is coming into this match playing in great form in their recent matches and they have also been trending to the over in these. They have won 6 of their last 7 matches and they have gone over 3.5 goals in 3 of their last 4 as well as 6 of their last 8, seeing 3+ goals total in all 8 of those matches. Their attack has been on fire in these matches as they have scored at least 3 goals in 3 of their last 4 as well as 5 of their last 7 matches, scoring 6 goals total in their l;ast 2 matches alone, but their defense has not been great in these as they have not kept a clean sheet in each of their last 6 matches and they have allowed 7 goals in that span. They are coming off of a 3-1 win against Senegal in their 1st match of this tournament and they had a very slow start in that match, but they were also playing against one of the better teams in the group and still came away with the win. They are currently sitting in 2nd place in the group though since Norway beat Iraq 4-1, but France will be pushing to win by more in case the GD comes into play in this group. They are going up against an Iraq side that has not been trending to the over in their recent matches. They are coming off of a 4-1 loss to Norway in their 1st match of this tournament though and their defense has not been good, allowing 6 goals total in their last 2 matches. Their attack has not been bad though as they have found the net in 4 of their last 5 matches and they were able to respond right away when Norway scored early. Iraq created some scoring chances in that match against Norway and France has been vulnerable at the back recently, so it would not be shocking to see Iraq find the net here, but Iraq also has a very poor defense that is not going to keep this potent France attack out of their net and France has the quality to score 4 goals themselves in this match. Between these two sides, there will be enough goals in this match to push it over 3.5 goals.
