• France have lost only one of their previous 17 U21 EURO group matches (W14 D2). That was a 0-1 defeat vs Denmark in 2021.

France vs Poland prediction

Poland have nothing to lose at this stage having already seen their hopes of knockout qualification go up in smoke after failing to pick up a single point across their opening two group games. They were beaten by Georgia and Portugal respectively, conceding a whopping seven goals in the process and scoring just one.

France are a much stronger team on paper across the field and focus won’t be an issue when considering the stakes. Expect them to flex their offensive muscles and comprehensively outplay Poland, ultimately winning with over 2.5 goals scored over the course of the entire contest.
