Uruguay vs France Prediction & Betting Tips - World Cup
by Valeria Di Meglio | in World Cup Predictions
The World Cup may have seen both Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo depart the tournament on Saturday but we still have the amazing talent of Kylian Mbappe who put in a sensational performance with two goals in the 4-3 win over Argentina on Saturday. His pace was electrifying and there will be few defences if any that can cope with him when he is in top form. Two goals on Saturday helped give France the victory and a place in the quarter finals and twice in the last three times they have got this far, they have gone on to reach the final. They are a side that's packed wth flair and speed and could well have too much for Uruguay.
TheIr opponents beat Portugal 1-0 on Saturday to reach the quarter finals for only the second time since 1970. They had a mixed timein their group struggling to get a 1-0 win over Egypt in their opening Group A game but then beating Saudi Arabia and Russia to top the group with maximum points. Their good form continued in the last sixteen beating Portugal 2-1. That was their seventh win in a row and the goal conceded on Saturday ended a run of six games without conceding. The last five games played between these teams have only seen one goal scored but there should be more thrills and spills this time around. France have the momentum and the pace to end Uruguay's run so go for them to get the win and reach the last four.

Our Uruguay vs France Prediction
France put in a great performance against Argentina on Saturday with Mbappe excelling throughout. His pace allied with the flair that this French team has will prove to be the difference between these two teams. They have so many options going forward and should be able to give their opponents their toughest task so far in the 2018 World Cup. Uruguay are on a good run and aren't easy to score against but this French team, if playing anything like they did at the weekend. Go for France to keep the momentum going with a win in the 90 minutes.
