2018 World Cup winners France meet Denmark in the 4pm (GMT) kick-off on Saturday 25th November at Stadium 974 in Ras Abu Aboud, Doha, Qatar.

This should be a great game to watch and although France are the bookies’ odds-on favourites, Denmark should be able to give them a game, especially if they perform like they did in the 2020 European Championships.

This should be the toughest of the group games for both sides and I expect both of them to qualify for the knock-out stages.

Denmark made it through to the semi-finals of Euro 2020 whereas France were knocked out in the Round of 16 by Switzerland. Of course, there’s no denying that France have an exceptional squad who are capable of winning this tournament but they’re not without their flaws and are prone to conceding against teams who pose a threat.

Denmark are an organised side but also dangerous at the other end of the pitch as proved by finding the net 30 times and conceding just 3 in their 10 qualification matches for this competition. A win for them against one of the tournament’s favourites could give them a huge advantage should they make it through to the knockout stages and it’s not out of the question that they could get a result in this game.

This is a difficult game to bet on in my opinion but should be a great one to watch. France could be 2-0 up at half time or we could see a much tighter match should Denmark be able to keep their organisation.

I would love to see Denmark get something from this game but there’s no doubt France have more quality. Therefore, I’m backing France to Win & BTTS which is priced at 7/2 with Bet365. Denmark should be able to create chances but even if they find the net, with the firepower France have at their disposal, it’s more than likely that they’ll be able to outscore their opponents to pick up all three points.
