4 FAQs regarding Argentina vs France Betting Tips & Odds

Both Teams To Score Prediction: Yes

Our first Argentian vs France World Cup 2022 finals prediction is for both teams to score at odds of 2.00. We feel like there is no way for this final to go without a couple of goals and at least one per team. Both sides have shown incredible attacking football and have scored in almost every single game (France only failed against Tunisia but they played with the deep reserves). There is no doubt that neither of these teams will go out for the draw, so we should see goals.

Match Result Prediction: Draw

The second prediction for Argentina vs France is a draw in the 2022 World Cup finals at odds 2/1 (3.00). How could we expect something else than a draw here? These are the two strongest national teams in the world and the odds clearly show that the draw is the most possible result too. The French lost in the 3rd round to Tunisia, but there the team simply played with the second squad and was not tuned in to the result. In the semi-finals, the French almost got into trouble with the Moroccans, losing to the Africans in most components of the game, winning through experience. So I would not give preference to France here.

Correct Score Prediction: 2:2 Draw

Our third and last prediction is a correct score of 2-2 when Argentina clashes with France in the 2022 World Cup finals. We expect a draw and more than two goals in this match. Both sides have shown that they can score multiple goals against opponents of every calibre. The most important factor is that neither Argentina nor France is particularly strong defensively – they stand out with their attacks. So, we expect goals from both sides and possibly more than one per team. There is value in both 1:1 and 2:2.

Argentina Preview

Argentina definitely had an interesting World Cup or at least the start was curious. The team suffered a shocking defeat to Saudi Arabia and then went on to dominate against every other team they faced. The Netherlands were a problem and it was not a pretty game with nearly 20 yellow cards shown in regular and extra time. But Lionel Messi has shown that he is as good as he was 10 years ago and we expect an explosive performance in the final too.

Argentina Predicted Lineup: Emilliano Martinez, Nahuel Molina, Cristian Romero, Nicolas Otamendi, Marcos Acuna, Rodrigo de Paul, Leandro Paredes, Enzo Fernandez, Alexis Mac Allister, Lionel Messi and Julian Alvarez.

France Preview

France had no serious challenges in the World Cup path to date. Yes, they lost to Tunisia but if you look at the squad they used, it was no surprise. They destroyed Poland in the 1/8s, then passed through England in the 1/4, and beat Morocco in the semi-finals. To be honest, the match against Morocco was the biggest challenge and France definitely did not look as dominant. With a huge dose of luck, they kept a clean sheet but that will not be possible against Argentina.

France Predicted Lineup: Hugo Lloris, Theo Hernandez, Ibrahima Konate, Raphael Varane, Jules Kounde, Adrien Rabiot, Aurelien Tchouameni, Kylian Mbappe, Antoine Griezman, Ousmane Ndembele, and Olivier Giroud.
