France vs South Africa prediction
South Africa’s best finish in this tournament was back in 2009 when they reached the round of 16. Their latest appearance in 2019 ended with them being eliminated in the group stage without winning a game. France on the other, topped their group that year with three wins from three, before bowing out in the round of 16 to USA.
Expect a close contest here but with strong attacking players on each side, it would be no surprise to see plenty of chances created at either end of the pitch. As both teams hunt for what would be a crucial three points, backing France and South Africa to find the net may well prove the smart move to make.
France vs South Africa tip: Both teams to score
