France vs Switzerland: Predictions and Betting Tips

France

The French come into this round after finishing top of Group F with one win and two draws. They have scored four goals and conceded three goals.

It certainly seems that we have not seen their best from the French so far but we must remember that in the group stages of the last World Cup the French were also unconvincing, only to storm ahead in the knockout stages and seal the victory.

In seven meetings with the Swiss, the French have not lost in any of them.

Switzerland

The Swiss qualified for the last 16 after finishing as one of the best third-placed teams, after one win, one draw and one defeat. They have scored four goals and conceded five across these matches.

The Swiss, aware that they are facing possibly the toughest opponents, will be free from the pressure that comes of being expected to win, which may help their performance.

Key Stats

• Ten consecutive matches without losing for France, comprising seven wins and three draws
• France have only conceded three goals in their last seven matches
• Three wins, one draw and one defeat for Switzerland in their last five matches
• Four of Switzerland’s last five games have ended with over 2.5 total match goals

France vs Switzerland Predictions

The French are the clear favourites in this match as both their cohesion as a team and their style of play are far superior to those of the Swiss. Even without being at their best level, the French should be able to secure a very comfortable win in this match.

Thanks to the attacking arsenal of the French team, we think this match will have more than 2.5 total goals.
