[Football- Euro 2024 Qualifications] 24.3/ 20:45 France- Netherlands
France enters this fixture after a 3-3 WC drawn match against Argentina. It was an epic match in which Les Bleus managed to get back after trailing 2-0, but they lost the title after a penalty shootout. It's been seldom in recent games where France has kept a clean sheet. The facts show that France has failed to prevent opponents from scoring in 5 of their previous six clashes, letting in 7 goals along the way. Let's find out if that trend will be continued here. Deschamps' plans have been disrupted by issues in defense, with William Saliba forced to pull out due to injury and Raphael Varane retiring from international football at the start of 2023. Mike Maignan will replace former captain Hugo Lloris in goal, but the majority of France's key names have been called up.
In their previous game, the Netherlands drew 2-2 in the WC tie with Argentina. Like their opponents, Oranje also went to a penalty shootout, but they were not clinical enough. A run of hard-working performances from the Netherlands defenders has seen their' goals against' tally standing at four from their last six outings combined. During the same time, their forwards have managed to score 11. Koeman has confirmed his plan to revert to a traditional Dutch 4-3-3 system in the Euro 2024 qualifiers, which will begin in Paris. However, several important players will miss this encounter since they caught a virus.
The atmosphere in the French team has been heated up in the previous months, which might impact their performances. On the other hand, the Netherlands will have severe issues with players sidelined due to a virus. That's the only reason why we will back the hosts in this match.
Both teams have an attacking approach, and that shouldn't change in this clash. It should be an entertaining encounter in which both teams should be able to find the back of the opponent's net.
