The top candidate for advancing to the next round in Group D, the French national team will face their final obstacle named Poland, who have officially been eliminated after the end of the second round of matches. In a match to conclude the group stage and bid farewell to the Polish audience, this promises to be a game with an open and less cautious approach.
Expert analysis of France vs Poland
After a goalless draw against the Netherlands in the second round of matches, theoretically, France has not yet officially advanced, but with 4 points in hand, the likelihood of Les Bleus making it to the knockout stage is up to 99.9%. The current issue is how coach Didier Deschamps and his team will strategize for their knockout stage path and what their goal is in this match. Looking at the potential opponents that France could face if they finish in one of the top 2 positions in Group D. If they finish first, Les Bleus will face the second-placed team from Group F, which could be Turkey or the Czech Republic. While if they finish second, their potential opponent will be Belgium or Romania. Therefore, finishing at the top of the group will lead France to a more favorable knockout stage path, and their fighting spirit remains intact in this match.
In contrast, the Polish national team has been officially eliminated from EURO 2024 after the Netherlands and France drew 0-0. The final match against France for coach Michal Probierz’s team will only serve as a gesture of gratitude to the audience, and if nothing unexpected happens, an open and less cautious approach will be displayed by the White Eagles against the French. The 90 minutes against France on June 25th may also be the last time Robert Lewandowski appears in the colors of the Polish national team at a major tournament, as the Barcelona forward is now 37 years old and it will be difficult for him to continue leading the white-clad team at the World Cup in two years. Therefore, Lewy will bring his determination to score in hopes of a complete farewell. A France team with a desire to win to secure the top spot in the group, and a Polish squad fighting for the last time at EURO 2024, will result in a match with an uncompromising and less cautious approach. The showdown at Signal Iduna Park promises to deliver a feast of plentiful goals for the audience.
Overview of the head-to-head records of France vs Poland
In the past, since their most recent encounter in 1982, Poland has never been able to win against France. The results of their last 5 matches also demonstrate the advantage of Les Bleus with 3 wins and 2 draws. Surely, the psychologically relaxed team of coach Michal Probierz will hope to create something extraordinary against Les Bleus.
France vs Poland betting odds
France’s key striker Kylian Mbappe is currently dealing with a nasal injury and was on the bench against the Netherlands. However, with the desire to score their first goal at EURO, coach Didier Deschamps is likely to “indulge” the young player by fielding Mbappe in the final group stage match, which is also a way to boost the Real Madrid forward’s morale before the knockout stage.
On the Polish side, this could be an opportunity for coach Michal Probierz to give playing time to the players who have not had much opportunity to play at EURO 2024. With a completely relaxed mindset, the players of the White Eagles will have no hesitation in playing openly against the team from the land of the Eiffel Tower.
- Poland +1.5: Don’t underestimate Poland just because they have officially been eliminated, the effect of gratitude to the audience and the psychological factor without real obstacles is a difficult factor to talk about in football. In addition, France also does not have the habit of winning heavily in group stage matches, this is an assessment reference from a reputable EURO betting guide.
