Tunisia v France: Changes could keep it competitive

Tunisia v France betting tips, predictions and odds

France need only a draw to be confirmed as Group D winners at World Cup 2022 and could be forgiven for easing off when they face Tunisia.

Two wins from two has put the defending champions into the last 16 already, while even a surprise win for Tunisia is unlikely to be enough for them to progress.

Wednesday’s match at Education City Stadium kicks off at 3pm and is live on the BBC.

France in fine form

France suffered several injury setbacks in the build-up to the World Cup but it has been smooth sailing so far as they look to become the first champions to retain the World Cup since 1962.

A 4-1 victory over Australia was an impressive start before Kylian Mbappe struck twice as Les Bleus saw off bogey team Denmark 2-1 to reach the knockout stage with a game to spare.

Having scored against the Aussies, Mbappe was the star of the show again in the Denmark game with two close-range finishes – his winner coming four minutes from time.

That extended France’s World Cup winning streak to six games and France winning odds of 8/15 suggest that run can continue here.

Didier Deschamps may opt to rotate his squad here though and with several star names already absent through injury, most notably Karim Benzema, their strength in depth may be tested.

Opposing goals may be the best option for Tunisia v France betting tips, with under 2.5 available at 5/6 while France to win and under 2.5 goals is 5/2.
