Sweden vs France Predictions

• France have won six of their last seven competitive games.
• Sweden have failed to score in four of their last five defeats.
• France have won to nil in each of their last three away games.

French quality to shine through in Stockholm

Two wins from four was enough to promote Sweden to League A in the first iteration of the Nations League, but they face a daunting prospect as they prepare to go head to head with Croatia, France and Portugal.

The Swedes are clear underdogs, and it’s not difficult to see why. Their opponents are composed of the reigning world champions, the beaten World Cup finalists and the reigning Nations League champions.

The hosts do have a decent squad and come into this unbeaten in eight games, but France have a team of true superstars and arrive in Stockholm armed with the likes of Antoine Griezmann, Kylian Mbappe, Anthony Martial, Raphael Varane and N’Golo Kante.

France have won six of their last seven games as well, which includes three consecutive away wins without conceding. Sweden, for all their recent success, have often come unstuck when facing the top teams.

Their last defeat was a 3-0 hammering in Spain and they have lost to Finland, Turkey, Austria and England in the last couple of years. Four of these five defeats saw them fail to score, and with France averaging 2.42 goals per game over their last seven outings we think a France win and a 2-0 correct score prediction is the way to go.
