France vs Scotland Prediction & Betting Tips - International Friendlies

Prediction published on 15/10/2023, 13:15 by Sridhar in Football Predictions

After contrasting results in their Euro qualifiers, France and Scotland try to end the international break on a high in this friendly. This match will be played at the Stade Pierre-Mauroy on Tuesday. France defeated the Netherlands 2-1 in their last match over the weekend to ensure early progression to the Euro 2024 group stages. It was a win inspired by Kylian Mbappe’s double, with a goal in each half. That was their sixth straight win in the qualifiers to ensure an early ticket to the Euros. The French have been a difficult team to beat, having avoided defeat at full-time in their last 11 matches in all competitions and friendlies. This sequence has seen them win nine and lose one, while their draw against Argentina ended in a loss via penalties.

Scotland are coming off a 2-0 loss to Spain that was underlined with controversy over VAR. Scott McTominay’s free-kick sailed direct into the Spanish goal but was ruled out, before Spain came out with full points thanks to two goals. The night was made worse for the Scots as captain Andy Robertson got injured and limped off. Yet, it is a testimony to their strong campaign that they are still top of Group A with 15 points. They could even qualify on Sunday itself if Norway fail to beat Spain. Regardless, the defeat to Spain made it successive defeats for the Scots who are now looking to avoid losing three in a row since October 2019.

France - Scotland: Form Analysis

France have won six of their last seven matches, with their only loss coming in a friendly against Germany. Going further back, the defeat to Germany was their only loss since a 1-0 reverse against Tunisia. Since then, Les Bleus have won nine and drawn one at regular time and lost just once. Their form over friendlies is equally impressive, winning four in a row before that defeat to Germany. Scotland are coming off a 2-0 loss to Spain that made it their first defeat of this qualification campaign after five straight wins. That loss made it two defeats in a row for the Scots, who are now looking to avoid a third consecutive loss for the first time since 2019. Their form in the friendlies is a big worry, as the Scots have won just once across their last ten friendlies – drawing three and losing six in that sequence.

France & Scotland Squad Analysis

France have lost a number of key players to injuries last week, including William Saliba, Jules Kounde, Axel Disasi and Dayot Upamecano. Kylian Mbappe has become the fourth-highest all-time scorer for France but could be rested with Olivier Giroud and Ousmane Dembele looking for starts. Scotland have had a dreaded evening against Spain losing the match, as well as losing defender Andrew Robertson to injury. While they wait to hear over the extent of that injury, there could be changes elsewhere with Che Adams likely to get a chance.

Our France vs Scotland Prediction

France and Scotland are coming off contrasting results, but are impressive in their respective Euro qualifying campaigns. France have, in fact, confirmed their ticket to Euro 2024 and should be looking at resting their main players for this fixture. Les Bleus could still be putting their best foot forward considering the talent in the squad. Scotland have had a bruising result against Spain, that has also put their captain Robertson out of the equation with a possible long-term injury. They are also on the verge of qualification, which could be confirmed if Norway fail to defeat Spain on Sunday. Regardless, they could also be easing into this match looking to add some legs to the fringe players. Yet, this is an opportunity for Scotland to prove that their qualification campaign is not a flash in the pan. That could see them put a stubborn effort and our prediction for France vs Scotland is for a double chance on Scotland.
