France vs England 1X2 prediction
A decorated spell in international football comes to an end for Didier Deschamps, the France national team manager. A world champion as a player and coach, Deschamps will send out his team for the final time in the World Cup third-place playoff match against England. This wasn’t the ideal way the French legend would have wanted things to end, but he has to fight for the scraps, the price to pay for a poor outing in the semi-final, against Spain. Outfoxed France suffered a 2-0 defeat to the Spaniards and will hope to do better in their second straight meeting with England. The Three Lions find themselves here with a bag of regrets, just like France, and will similarly hope for a strong ending. England manager Thomas Tuchel adopted a poor strategy after taking the lead against champions Argentina, and were made to pay in a 2-1 defeat. The German manager’s defensive approach to close out the game backfired badly as he was left chasing the game with a team dominated by defensive players. Now he meets the same side that eliminated his current employers in the last World Cup. England lost their last two matches against France and are winless in the last four competitive matches against France. Our prediction here is for France to win.

France vs England under/over prediction
The third-place playoff isn’t a prize any serious team goes to the World Cup looking to win. Circumstances, highlighted by poor decisions in the semis, have England and France contesting for this unwanted prize. The regrets aside, at least these two nations will play without any pressure, and this could be the moment for both managers to give a chance to players who haven’t felt the action. We expect an open game out there, and these sides should be able to serve up some goals. France’s last three games haven’t had any registering over 2.5 goals, but that could change here. In four of their seven matches at this tournament, the French scored 3+. Compared to France, England have been a bit goal-shy. They only managed 3+ goals on two occasions, but five of their seven matches had three or more goals. Their last two meetings with the French also served up more than two goals, and we are predicting the same for this encounter.
