Two European giants of the game clash in Lyon on Saturday night in the penultimate game ahead of the European Championships kicking off in June.

Didier Deschamps side were unbeaten during the whole of the qualifying campaign, winning 7 and drawing 1 of their 8 matches.

They scored a staggering 29 goals, the 2^nd highest out of all nations after Portugal and conceded just 3 goals, again the 2^nd best defence after Portugal.

The graphic below shows France’s statistics during the qualifying group for Euro 2024.

Coral are offering 1.83 on France to win the game and the signs look rather ominous for Germany to prevent this from happening.

Despite beating France back in September 2023, Julian Nagelsmann’s team have lost 3 of their last 4 international fixtures and have just 1 win from their last 6 matches.

In the most recent head-to-head meetings with France, the Germans have lost 4 from the last 7, losing the last 3 games away to Les Bleus.

The graphic below shows just how dominant France has been against Germany in the last 6 fixtures they’ve played against each other before September 2023.

In Kylian Mbappe, France have arguably the world’s best footballer amongst their ranks. 

Mbappe has scored 46 goals in just 73 games for Deschamps side, giving him the best goals per game ratio of any France player in history.

Bet365 are offering the best price on Mbappe to score anytime at 2.20 and he could well add to his devastating tally in Lyon on Saturday.
