World Cup Group D, Tuesday, November 22nd, 19:00 (UK)
Didier Deschamps and his French squad head to the World Cup in unstable form. They’ve recorded just a single victory in their previous six competitive matches despite having one of the most talented squads in international football.
The Aussies may be feel a little hard done by with the group they’re situated in. Denmark and Tunisia make up the numbers with the two European sides heavily expected to navigate through with little sweat.
Graham Arnold’s side beat Peru on penalties to earn a place in Qatar back in June which came as a relative surprise. They’ll certainly be up against it here however against a French side who can beat anyone on their day.
These nations actually met in Kazan four years ago where the French edged a 2-1 victory after Aziz Behich’s own goal gifted them maximum points late on.
Australia are 4.00 to book themselves a place in the knockout stages whilst as short as 1.20 to face an early dumping. The current holders are priced at 7.00 to make a mess of their time in Qatar but just 1.10 to maintain a spot in the competition.
Kylian Mbappe will most definitely start in an attacking area for France, the 23 year old has been in terrific form domestically for PSG scoring 19 times in 20 appearances across Ligue 1 and the Champions League.
His pace will cause huge issues for the Socceroos who lack any sort of quality in defensive areas, just two players in the entire 26-man squad play their trade in Europe’s top five leagues, but even those two spend most of the time sat on the bench.
This opening match in Group D should witness one-way traffic, despite the French side missing a number of players that helped them to succeed in Russia, there’s more than enough talent and depth to give the Aussies a hard time and with an informed Mbappe lurking about, he’ll be desperate to get himself on the scoresheet.
Although the French should leave here victorious it may not be by a huge scoreline, it’s now 39 consecutive matches since a team put three or more goals past the Aussies in 90 minutes. They’ll just sit tight, soak up the pressure and test their luck on the counter, a point would feel like three if they managed to keep things level.
Kylian is 1.90 to score for Les Bleus on Tuesday evening, which itself seems a price definitely backable alone. Combining the favourites to score three or less brings the price up to a 2.70 shout, which has every chance.
Karim Benzema is doubtful which now gives the PSG forward an even greater opportunity in the forward line, this will be Kylian Mbappe’s second World Cup tournament, he scored four times across seven matches last time out and will be eyeing up the golden boot. He’s 11.00 to finish as the top scorer in Qatar and will be needing to net in the opener to give himself any kind of chance.
