The group stage of the World Cup has ended, and the playoffs are waiting for us. The national teams of Poland and France will meet in one of the matches. The start of the match is scheduled for December 4 at 18:00 Moscow time. Our portal has prepared a forecast for you on the outcome of this confrontation.
France
Before the start of the tournament, the French suffered almost the most due to injuries to key performers, and already in the course of preparation they lost Benzema and Nkunka, which put the chances of the French success in this tournament in great doubt. Still, the French have enough high-quality performers in the cage, who brought the French first place in the group, even despite the defeat in the last meeting from Tunisia.
Poland
Poland has a lot of players from the European championships, a good fusion of youth and experience, but they all do not meet expectations yet. The Poles started the tournament well, having painted a zero draw with Mexico, after which they managed to beat Saudi Arabia, but the quality of football in these matches left much to be desired, because the defeat from Argentina in the last match did not surprise anyone. As a result, the Poles entered the playoffs only by goal difference, but there are clearly not many chances to go far with such a game.
Statistics and figures
- The last match between these teams ended with a 0:1 victory for France.
- The Polish national team has been unable to beat France for five meetings in a row.
- France has lost only twice in their last five meetings
Forecast
France looks like a big favorite in this confrontation, which is now in good shape and has a more experienced and well-played squad. Poles like to play defensively, but they cannot boast of reliable protection. I think the French will have an easy victory here.
