France Women vs Belgium Women Predictions

• France have won 15 consecutive matches – including friendlies – after thrashing Italy 5-1 in their Euro 2022 opener.
• 10 of those wins have contained over 3.5 goals, and France have netted 67 goals across those 15 games.
• Belgium have seen a minimum of four goals scored in 10 of their last 15 outings.

France among the favourites after five-star display

France’s 5-1 obliteration of Italy cemented their status among the favourites to win Euro 2022, even if their terrific five-goal first-half display was bettered by hosts England against Norway the following day. Les Bleues, led by Sunday’s hat-trick hero Grace Geyoro and fellow Paris Saint-Germain star Marie-Antoinette Katoto, are in imperious form and look unlikely to slow down against Belgium.

Indeed, France have won 15 consecutive matches since a loss to the all-conquering United States last year, racking up a scarcely believable 67 goals across those contests, 10 of which have contained over 3.5 goals. In Katoto, France have a forward with 23 goals in 23 international starts, and they are overwhelming favourites to seal early progress to the knockout stages against the Belgians.

Their opponents began their own campaign with a 1-1 draw against Iceland and will harbour hopes of progression regardless of the result here, but look hard pushed to compete with Corrine Diacre’s team. 3-0 and 4-0 thrashings by England and Norway in their last meetings with top-tier opponents do not bode well, although 10 of their last 15 games have contained over 3.5 goals, so they may at least harbour confidence of joining Italy in landing a blow.

Les Bleues can triumph in entertaining contest

Given France’s attacking brilliance and tremendous form, we’re tipping them to qualify for the quarter-finals by winning a match containing over 3.5 goals, as has become a regular habit of theirs in recent years.

Meanwhile, a 3-1 France win could be a decent correct score prediction, with both teams netting in four of Belgium’s last six matches.
