France vs Belgium Prediction - UEFA Nations League Picks 9/9/24

-A summary that ties it all together and produces a favorable betting outcome for today’s game between France and Belgium.

France Betting Preview

France struggled in the first game against Italy and it was a bad game. Bradley Barcola scored in the first minute and France was off to a flying start. As the game went on through the struggles started, and they ended up giving up three goals after the 30 minutes. France had 55 percent of the possession and three shots on target. Michael Olise has played well and he’s going to try to keep his spot in the starting lineup in this game. If a change is made, France will probably move Ousmane Dembele into the starting lineup. Jules Kounde and Dayot Upamecano are both players who could end up moving into the starting lineup here. 

Belgium Betting Preview

Belgium in the first game faced off against Israel and it was an impressive 3-1 victory. Kevin Du Bruyne scored in the 21st and 52nd minute and that was the difference. Youri Tielemans also scored in the 48th minute. The only goal that Israel scored was an own goal, and that is going to need to be improved upon here.  Lukaku isn’t available for this game but that wasn’t that big of a concern in the first game when they scored three goals. Manchester City pair Kevin De Bruyne and Jeremy Doku are going to be in the starting lineup again here. 

France vs Belgium Prediction

Let’s not think too much about the first game, France is going to find success here. I still am not sold on the Belgium defense and they are going to really struggle here. Belgium is going to give up a couple of goals early, and that is going to be the difference here. Belgium’s offense is going to have no answer, and France is going to get the job done. Back France -1 here.
