Tunisia vs France Bet Builder Tips: 2.70 Builder Backing French Win In Group Finale

Tunisia vs France Bet Builder Tips: Wednesday, November 30th

Group D reaches its climax on Wednesday and we have France v Tunisia bet builder tips for the clash at the Education Stadium.

Tunisia have never beaten France in any of their four head-to-heads, which does not bode well considering only a victory over Les Bleus would give them a chance of qualification.

Resolute defensively, the main issue for the North Africans is their blunt offence. They’ve failed to convert any of their 27 shots so far. They will need to buck this trend if they want to make it into the knockout stages for the first time ever.

World Cup Group C, Wednesday, November 30, 15:00 (UK)

A superbly taken Michell Duke header proved to be the difference between the sides in Tunisia’s last game, a defeat to Australia.

This result saw the nations switch places meaning Tunisia now stare a sixth World Cup exit in the group stages down the barrel, barring a miracle.

Yet to find the net in Qatar, Jalel Kadri’s side must stun the world champions and hope that the Socceroos drop points against Denmark to be within a chance of qualification.

So things are not looking good for the Eagles of Carthage as they meet Les Bleus at the Education City Stadium.

France has been formidable in Qatar.

Excluding the first 10 minutes of their opener against Australia, Didier Deschamps’ men have shown little sign of falling foul to the same fate as the three previous world champions- Italy, Spain and Germany- and crashing out of the WC in the group stage.

Spearheaded by Kylian Mbappe, the French became the first side to reach the knock-out stages, after the frontman’s double saw them edge past Denmark.

“They’ve answered the questions,” said former France defender Mikael Silvestre in an exclusive interview with bettingexpert.

“Especially after the Denmark game which was a tougher opponent than Australia. Especially having a bad record against Denmark. It is not an easy team to face, so two games, two wins is convincing, in many ways.

“Didier Deschamps will have the opportunity to rotate. Give some players a rest and give some game time so they are ready for the next phase in case they have to play.”

“We have to beat Tunisia, that’s for sure. Keep winning in the same way, keep the concentration level and performance level.
As Silvestre said, booking their place in the last 16 early allows their supremo to rotate here, which could be crucial long-term as they look along the road to the final.

Tunisia vs France Stats & Facts

This is the 6th World Cup finals Tunisia have played in and they did not make it out of the group stage in any of the ones prior.
Tunisia have never gone through an entire World Cup campaign without scoring but risk doing so here.
Kylian Mbappé has scored in each of his last three World Cup games, a goal in this game would make him the 2nd French player to score in four in a row.
A start for Hugo Lloris would earn him a 142nd cap for France, equalling Lilian
Thuram as the joint-most capped player for the men’s French national side.

Despite being played against a challenging backdrop, this World Cup’s outrageous upsets have charmed.

Saudi Arabia came from behind to beat Argentina, Japan did the same against Germany, then lost to Costa Rica and Morocco besting world number two-ranked Belgium.

Wales boss Robert Page said it has proven that “anyone can beat anyone” which is why it would be foolish to side with France in a game that nothing is riding on, wouldn’t it? Especially considering Tunisia has everything to play for…

I don’t think so. Well, you have to play the prices and at 1.44, France are simply too large.

They went off at 1.22 against Australia (ranked 38th), in the Nations League, they went off at 1.43 against Austria (34th) and 1.47 v Croatia (12th). Tunisia may defend stoically but I do not think they will be able to contend with Les Bleus’ abundance of attacking flair.

Not least Kylian Mbappe. PSG’s frontman has insisted he does not want to be rested, unsurprising given the form he is in bagging three goals in Qatar.

With Neymar injured and Lionel Messi faltering slightly, it looks light the tournament’s spotlight is there for the taking and this fixture provides an opportunity for Mbappe to add to his tally.

Seeing what happened to Neymar, Deschamps may think twice about risking his superstar in such a pointless game, but with Mbappe rumoured to start combing him to find the net with his nation to win looks irresistible at 2.62.
