France vs. Poland Predictions

• Where: Al Thumama Stadium, Doha, Qatar
• When: Sunday, December 4, 8 pm local time

France lost the last game in its group against Tunisia, which is a wake-up call for the champions not to relax and stay focused. They have Poland to square off in the round of 16, a team with no pressure whatsoever, which makes him incredibly dangerous. The Poles had the luck to advance from their group, some would say unfairly, but they are through anyway.

France vs. Poland Preview

France

Didier Deschamps wanted to rest some of his players against Tunisia, but he had to introduce them in the game during the second half, with the Gauls being down 0-1. In the end, Griezmann did score, but his goal was ruled off. 

Now, this goal wasn’t painful for the champs because they already had two wins over the first two events, against Australia, 4-1, and Denmark, 2-1, pretty much securing the top spot in their assembly. 

As you can see, the French team allowed a goal in each event, which has been the case for the Gauls recently, with them having oscillations in the back line. Though the attack always covered up that deficit. 

Poland

We didn’t see anything from Poland in this World Cup, and we need to say that right away. Advancing from the group stage was pure luck, as well as the win over Saudi Arabia. The Arabians missed a penalty, and after that, they didn’t know how to close out, etc.

The game against Mexico was one of the most boring games in this World Cup, with the Poles being inferior most of the time. Argentina was dominant in their matchup, with Lewandowski and the boys not being able to create a decent chance. 

The main problem for the Poles is the lack of creativity in the midfield because they don’t have a single player who is able to create an extra man or beat his rival one-on-one.
