Japan
Japan greatly pleases its fans in the current League of Nations. It is worth noting that at the moment the team managed to hold 6 matches in the framework of the intercontinental tournament, and lost only once. It happened in a match against the USA on a tie-break. In the matches with the Netherlands, China, Iran, Argentina and Italy, the Asian team invariably won. Such results allowed the Asians to rise to the 3rd place in the standings and fully qualify for a place in the playoffs.
France
The French squad has currently played 6 matches in the League of Nations. It is worth noting the fact that the "tricolor" were able to win 5 victories. The only setback happened to the team in the game against Poland – 1:3. In the confrontations with Italy, Serbia, Canada, China and the Netherlands, the "cockerels" were invariably stronger. At the moment, France leads the standings of the League of Nations, being on the first line with 15 points in the asset. Poland and Japan are losing on additional indicators.
Statistics and figures:
- France is the favorite of the meeting;
- Japan lost 1 meeting out of 6;

Forecast
