Analysis of France vs the US by experts

Both the Olympic teams France and the US are highly regarded in Group A of this Olympics. Especially for the home team. Coach Thierry Henry has a lot of quality personnel for the upcoming tournament. With 3 spots for players over 23 years old, the most notable face is undoubtedly the former Arsenal striker, Alexandre Lacazette. The 33-year-old striker with his experience will help France make a strong impression. In addition to experience, youth will also be another strength of the French team. The two wings of the home team will be guarded by two players with very good speed, Michael Olise and Lesley Ugochukwu. In Olise’s case, he was recently bought by Bayern Munich for over 50 million euros.

On the other hand, the US Olympic team will return to the Olympic arena for the first time after 3 consecutive absences. Overall, the young football of the country has not been heavily invested in. In the upcoming match against France, there are no impressive names in the US national team’s call-up list. Even their 3 overage spots are only players currently playing in the US MLS league. The expectations of American football fans will focus on the duo of forwards playing in the Netherlands, Paxten Aaronson and Taylor Booth. Both have performed well in their respective clubs. For Aaronson, he was loaned to Vitesse, where the 20-year-old striker has played 14 matches and scored 4 goals. Taylor Booth’s record is slightly better with 5 goals in the last season.

Overview of past match records between France vs the US

France vs the US betting odds

Clearly, in the first match at the Olympic Paris, the French team is rated much higher than their opponents. In addition to the top stars on the attacking front, the French midfield will also be led by another experienced player, Rayan Cherki. The 20-year-old midfielder has played 33 matches for Lyon last season. He also provided 6 assists and many key passes for the Rhone River team.

Meanwhile, the defensive system of the US Olympic team still causes concern for fans. Although 2 overage players are called up for this position, there is no element that brings the necessary certainty. Therefore, the possibility of the US standing firm against France is quite fragile.

Corner kick: It would not be too surprising if the home team completely dominates the game and puts pressure on the American players. In that case, the pressure on Gabriel Slonina’s goal is very high. This will also lead to a considerable number of corner kicks for France. In that case, choosing Corner kick is an option not to be overlooked.
Total goals: In the most recent encounter between the two teams, Olympic France vs USA, even though not using all the best personnel, both teams scored 4 goals. Choosing Total goals for the whole match is a worthy consideration. Especially when France has scored 17 times in their last 5 matches.
Select France -1.25: Choosing the upper door with a handicap odds of -1.25 for the home team is the advice of the experts analyzing the France vs USA odds. This is also understandable when the form of Olympic France is quite high. They have also won the handicap odds in 3/5 of their recent matches.
