France vs Ukraine Predictions

• France have lost just one of their last 23 home internationals, winning 18.
• However, Les Bleus have conceded in six of their last seven outings at Stade de France.
• Ukraine have lost six of their last seven internationals but have managed to net in four of their last five.

Ukraine face another blitz from Les Bleus

Defending world champions France get their 2022 qualifying campaign up and running this week and Didier Deschamps’ side should ease their way to a smooth success over Ukraine in Paris.

Friendly encounters aren’t always a great form guide, however the French pummelled Ukraine 7-1 here six months ago and there’s no reason to expect a different result this time around. The hosts have won 18 of their last 23 outings at Stade de France, while Ukraine have lost six of their last seven games.

There’s little appeal in backing Les Bleus in the match betting though as 1/4 is hardly a working mans price, and a home victory with both teams scoring rates a much better option.

Despite Ukraine’s poor form and their clear inferiority in this clash, Andriy Shevchenko’s men have managed to net in four of their last five starts including in that horror show here in October.

With the French conceding in all but one of their last seven in Paris, a win for Les Bleus and both teams to score makes obvious appeal and it’s easy to envisage Deschamps side taking their foot off the gas once the points are sewn up.

Despite our fancy for the away side to register, this should be an easy night’s work for France and we’re also tipping up a 4-1 score-line in their favour.
