Why France Will Beat Spain in the Olympic Gold Medal Game

France laid down the gauntlet early by dominating the United States 3-0 in a match.

From then on, the French continued to prove they’re the team to beat.

Mateta has scored at least a goal in France’s last 3 matches.

The 27-year-old, each nation can add 3 players over the age of 23, is destroying defenses.

With Mateta leading the attack, and a defense that has yielded a single goal in 5 matches, France looks close to unbeatable.

  • W – 3-1 vs Egypt
  • W – 1-0 vs Argentina
  • W – 0-3 vs New Zealand
  • W – 1-0 vs Guinea
  • W – 3-0 vs United States
 

Why Spain Will Beat France in the Olympic Gold Medal Game

The Spanish haven’t dominated the way France has, but El Rojo will start the most talented player in the match.

Since the knockout stage, Lopez has flat out taken over.

He took 5 shots against Japan and scoring 2 goals in the 3-0 victory over Japan.

Then in the semifinal win against Morocco, Lopez got the equalizer after Morocco had taken the lead off a penalty kick.

Lopez plays midfield.

So the direction of the team will depend on Lopez’s cues.

With Lopez dictating Spain’s pace, El Rojo has an excellent shot of getting the upset win.

  • W – 1-2 vs Morocco
  • W – 0-3 vs Japan
  • W – 1-3 vs Dominican Republic
  • L – 1-2 vs Egypt
  • W – 1-2 vs Uzbekistan
 

Final Betting Analysis: El Rojo Upsets the Home Team

France should win this match, but the French have taken on bad teams save for Argentina, which pushed France in a 1-0 French victory.

France is leaning on Mateta’s play.

But although the Crystal Palace player is terrific, he’s not a world class player the way Fermin Lopez is.

The 21 year old has put Spain on his back during the knockout phase and it’s shown.

Lopez is going to control most aspects of the match from his midfield position, which means Spain will have possession and take the more meaningful shots.

Back Spain to upset the French in what should be a terrific gold medal match.
