4th December 2022 – 16:00, Al Thumama Stadium, Doha
France and Poland will open Sunday’s action in the World Cup 2022 Round of 16. The defending champions want to continue their journey in this tournament, while Orly hope to improve their performances.
France Preview & Team Team
France started the tournament off with a big 4-1 win against Australia. Despite going a goal down in that game, France dominated the match and thoroughly deserved the 3 pts. Next up for France was supposedly their toughest game of the group stage, but Denmark didn’t offer enough going forward, and France claimed a 2-1 win to secure their place in the last 16 with a game to spare. That last game came against Tunisia, in which France made a few changes to their starting lineup. The Africans needed to win and got it thanks to a solitary second-half strike, but it wasn’t enough for Tunisia to progress. Les Bleus want to return to the winning track and secure a place in the quarter-finals.
Poland Preview & Team News
Poland drew 0-0 with Mexico on matchday 1, but it could have been much better if it wasn’t for Lewandowski missing a penalty. Up next for the Eastern Europeans came Saudi Arabia, and that game saw Lewandowski score his first-ever World Cup goal for Poland, who won the game 2-0. However, a 2 -0 defeat against Argentina followed in what was a poor display from Poland. Thankfully, Mexico only won 2-1 against Saudi Arabia, and Poland progressed as the second-placed team via goal difference. However, if they don’t improve things against France, Poland shouldn’t expect much from the upcoming game.
Full-Time Winner Odds & Prediction
France is a firm favorite in this encounter, and they shouldn’t have many troubles against Orly. Therefore, Les Bleus might beat their rivals by more than one goal.
Goals Market Prediction
Despite having Robert Lewandowski upfront, Poland has struggled a lot in the final third in this tournament. Les Bleus should keep the opponents away from their goal, and the defending champions’ net should stay intact.
