Argentina vs France: World Cup Final Predictions

Argentina and France both deservedly made it through to the Final of the 2022 World Cup in Qatar where much of the focus is bound to be on Messi and Mbappe, the best player in the world and his possible replacement. These two great footballing nations have a lot of history at the World Cup with France claiming a 4-3 win against Argentina at the 2018 tournament in Russia.

Argentina to Win

We’re backing Messi and co to fulfill the 35-year-old dream of winning the only major tournament that has so far illuded him during his illustrious career. Argentina have won four of their previous five matches against France, two of which have arrived at the World Cup. Argentina look particularly strong going forward and this French side has struggled somewhat at the back, keeping just one clean sheet in their six games so far.

Lionel Messi to Score

Messi has been a revelation at the 2022 World Cup, putting in his best performances by far despite being aged 35. The diminutive Argentine legend has scored 5-goals at the World Cup, the same amount as Mbappe, so both will be keen to get on the scoreboard in the final with the Golden Boot within their grasp. Messi has been a real threat in all of Argentina’s games and we expect the former Barcelona star to lead his team to glory on Sunday.

The last game of the tournament, the big final, will let us know if Messi managed to win the only trophy he’s missing in his career or whether France became the first team since 1962 to defend the World Cup title. Ahead of this exciting duel, let’s take a closer look at the average odds for it:

Argentina odds: 19/10 (2.90) – 34.5% Win Probability

Draw odds: 21/10 (3.10) – 32.3% Probability

France odds: 15/8 (2.88) – 34.8% Win Probability

As we can see from these odds, the bookies expect a very close match between France and Argentina. In fact, the odds on both teams are pretty much the same, with a draw having just a smidge higher price.

Meanwhile, the bookies don’t expect to see many goals in this game since the average odds on under 2.5 total goals are 11/18 (1.61), which is the same as a 62.1% probability. On the other hand, the odds on over 2.5 total goals are 6/4 (2.50), which implies a probability of 40%.

The bookies also see Leo Messi as the most probable first goalscorer with odds of 19/4 (5.75) and a probability of 17.4%. However, Kylian Mbappe is not that far behind with odds of 5/1 (6.00) and a 16.7% probability.

Two huge footballing nations clash in the World Cup FinalArgentina

Argentina put in a dominating display to cruise through to the Final. Croatia actually started the game on the front foot but as soon as Argentina got their first goal, there was no looking back for Messi and co. Argentina have had to wait a long time since their last World Cup success and their fans have been amazing throughout the entire tournament. Obviously, many romantics out there will be routing for the South Americans purely because they would love to see Messi secure the one major tournament that has escaped him for so long but it’s going to be a very close and competitive 90-minutes.

France

France were given a tough game against Morocco but as soon as that first goal went in early on, you feared the worst for the North Africans. France controlled the game for the most part and were happy to sit in and protect their lead knowing that Morocco would eventually leave too much space at the back, and that is just what happened. Mbappe setup the second killer goal that broke Moroccan hearts but in truth, France were the deserved winner and it has setup an exciting final full of potential Golden Boot winners.
