France vs Ukraine Prediction & Betting Tips - World Cup
by Daniel Ngulu | in World Cup Predictions
World champions France start their title defence with a home match against Ukraine in Group D. In terms of rank, the two sides are 22 places apart; France are second and Ukraine 24th. France march to this match having lost just once in their last 15 matches; they’ve won 12 of the 15 and pack up three wins in the last five. They’ve failed to score in two of the five matches but still head here as favorites, especially after finishing top of their Nations League group, with five wins in six matches. At home, they have just one loss in 23 matches. In World Cup qualification matches, the French have three wins in the last four matches and just one loss, and eight wins in the last 11. They are unbeaten in seven World Cup qualification matches at home.
Ukraine, on their part, head to this game after an underwhelming Nations League campaign. They have three straight defeats as they go to this game, and have been poor defensively, conceding three goals in each of the last two. In six of their last seven matches, Ukraine have conceded two or more goals. In October, they faced France in a friendly match, and were beaten 7-1, the nation will be hoping for a better outcome here. Ukraine really need that, having won three of their last 10 matches and with five straight away losses. In their last five away matches, the team has scored two goals and conceded 19.

Our France vs Ukraine Prediction
Ukraine have a poor run going to this game and starting away in France will not favor them at all. The last time they played in France, it ended in a 7-1 loss. They must have taken lessons and we don’t expect such a big win for the hosts. Still, it will be tough for Ukraine in the form they had at the close of 2020, and they haven’t done well defensively when playing away from home. Back France to win both halves here.
