Les Bleus to Move on to Six Points in Group D?

With Ukraine and Azerbaijan also in the group, France are expected to finish top. Les Bleus are already assured of a play-off spot after their UEFA Nations League ranking, but France are looking to reach next year’s World Cup automatically.

Deschamps’ troops got off to a winning start last week, beating the Ukrainians in Wroclaw. Michael Olise opened the scoring in the tenth minute, and Kylian Mbappe doubled their advantage late on.

Iceland will be competing with Ukraine for a top-two spot in Group D. After matchday one, France are favourites to qualify at 1.07, while Ukraine and Iceland are both available at 11.00.

Iceland kicked off their World Cup qualifying campaign with a convincing victory over Azerbaijan in Reykjavik. Cologne midfielder Isak Bergmann Johannesson netted a brace in the 5-0 rout at Laugardalsvollur.

France vs Iceland Betting Odds

France are the strong favourites to put another three points on the board in midweek. The 2022 FIFA World Cup runners-up are priced at 1.09 to win at the Parc des Princes.

Iceland impressed in game one, but this will be a far greater test for Arnar Gunnlaugsson’s boys. The away victory is available at the eye-opening price of 25.00, while the draw is 10.00.

The reverse fixture in the Icelandic capital was a much tighter affair, with the French nicking a 1-0 win. A second-half Giroud penalty proved to be the difference between the nations at Laugardalsvollur.
