Why bet on France versus Belgium?
France has put their EURO 2020 upset loss to the Swiss behind them. Since the loss, the French have drawn with a couple of decent squads, Bosnia and Herzegovina and the Ukraine, and has beaten Finland.

Why bet on Belgium versus France?
Although Belgium failed at the EUROs, FIFA continues to rank them number one in the world. There’s a reason for the top ranking. No other team on the planet boasts one of the best strikers in the world in Romelu Lukaku and the overall best player in the world in midfielder Kevin De Bruyne. The Belgians believe they have a World Cup run in them. To prove it, they will beat the French on Thursday.

Belgium vs. France Final Betting Analysis
France can win for sure, but there’s something about this French squad that should worry their fans. France showed no heart at EURO 2020.
The old French team would have dominated a side like Switzerland. This French team allowed the Swiss, who by no means are an offensive juggernaut, to post 3 goals.
Belgium didn’t win the EUROs either. But Belgium had an excuse in their loss to eventual winner Italy. Top player Eden Hazard had to sit due to an injury. Also, no team was going to beat Italy at the European Championships.
On Thursday, Belgium should show the world why FIFA continues to have faith. The Belgians figure to score at least 2 goals agianst France. That should be enough for Belgium to take this in regulation.
