France v Italy is a memorable fixture for many a reason, remembered by many for that Zidane headbutt in extra time of the 2006 World Cup final. France are favourites to win League A in the Nations League at 4/9. Italy will be keen to mount a challenge, however, they are not favoured by the bookies and are 9/2 to win League A.

  • France to win
  • Kylian Mbappe to score anytime

France vs Italy Predictions

France had a decent go of it at EURO 2024 but were knocked out in the semi-final to eventual winners Spain. Prior to that 2-1 defeat, the French were unbeaten in eight games, with their last defeat a 0-2 loss to Germany in a friendly in March. Italy were knocked out in the quarter-final after progressing through their group with two wins and one defeat – also to Spain. I think France will win this one fairly comfortably.

Anytime Scorer Prediction

Kylian Mbappe is regarded by some as the best player on the planet at the moment, and he is definitely the main man for France. He bagged one goal at EURO 2024 for his side, which makes up just one of his 48 goals for the national side. He will have a number of chances here, and I’m expecting him to take at least one of them.

Shots on Target Prediction

Ousmane Dembele is a tricky customer and will be heavily involved for the French from the right hand side of attack. In his three appearances in Ligue 1 so far this season he is averaging a shot on target per game with three in three. Last season, he had 14 shots on target, starting 17 matches for the Parisians. I think France will dominate possession here and create a lot of chances, and I’m backing Dembele to have at least one shot on target.

Yellow Card Prediction

Riccardo Calafiori is a prominent defender who has recently signed for Arsenal in the Premier League. He is yet to be carded in his two appearances for the Gunners, however, he is averaging one foul per game so far this season. He was booked twice for Italy at EURO 2024, which resulted in him missing their final game against Switzerland, and I think he is good odds for a card here. Free Spins No Deposit
