Bookmaker Ratings Prediction One: France to Win – 1.61
Bookmaker Ratings Prediction Two: Tunisia +3.5 Goals Handicap – 1.58
Bookmaker Ratings Prediction Three: Mbappe to Score Anytime – 2.10
France to Win
France won their last two matches in the World Cup and five of their ten fixtures in all competitions. Les Bleus as a result have a 50% probability of winning this game.
Tunisia +3.5 Goals Handicap
Tunisia lost just once by more than 3.5 goals since the beginning of the year and that was in a friendly against Brazil just before the World Cup. On the other hand, France won once by four or more goals in their last ten fixtures.
Mbappe to Score Anytime
Kylian Mbappe scored his 31st goal for France in the last match. The 23-year-old was on target for the second match running in Qatar. Mbappe is the favorite to score anytime in this match according to the bookmakers.
Tunisia
Tunisia’s points tally remained at one after losing to Australia in round two of Group D proceedings. Mathematically, the Eagles of Carthage have a very slim chance to qualify but they need to beat France by a big margin of goals. Tunisia managed to draw with France in two of their three friendlies played so far.
Coach Jalel Kadri’s team have been having difficulties in front of the goal in their last ten fixtures. To point out, Tunisia scored an average of 0.80 goals per game. In two matches so far in the World Cup, Tunisia failed to score any goal from five total shots on goal.
France
France became the first team to qualify for the round of 16 in the Qatar 2022 World Cup after beating Denmark 2-1 in the second round. With that win, Les Bleus raised their points tally to six points from two games and almost guaranteed to finish the group stage in the first position.
The victory over Denmark did come easy though for Didier Deschamps’ men who had to resist Denmark’s pressure early in the game. Still, that didn’t stop Mbappe and co to create 21 goal-scoring chances of which six were on target. Deschamps may rest some of his players for this game before the knockout stages in three days’ time.
Tunisia have a slight chance of qualifying if they beat France by two or more goals and Denmark beat Australia by one goal. This is a very unlikely scenario given France’s form. We think Les Bleus must find no difficulties in making three wins out of three in Wednesday’s game.
Both teams not to score statistics is showing a very high possibility of 65%. In detail, Tunisia’s nine of their last ten fixtures ended with both teams not scoring and the same trend happened in France’s four of their last ten. With odds of 1.70 at 1XBet, we predict both teams not scoring in this game.
