Players to Watch

France is led by goal keeper Hugo Lloris who plays for Tottenham in the Premier League. He has 93 caps and is the captain of France. The middle for France is one of the team’s strengths as they have Laurent Koscielny from Arsenal, Samuel Umtiti from Barcelona and Raphael Varane from Real Madrid to go along with Paul Pogba from Manchester United. The key scorer for France is Antoine Griezmann

The Coach

France has been led by Didier Deschamps since 2012. He had more success as a player than he has had as a coach, as he was the captain of France when they won the World Cup in 1998.

France World Cup History

France has made 14 appearances in the World Cup, winning one title in 1998. They scored the first goal in World Cup history, as Lucien Laurent scored against Mexico in 1939. France didn’t make it to the semifinals until 1958 and they didn’t win the World Cup until 1998. France did make the final again in 2006 but lost to Italy. France is coming off a good showing in 2014, as they made the quarterfinals. France has played 59 matches in World Cup history and scored 106 goals for an average of 1.8 goals scored per game.

France 2018 World Cup Predictions

France is getting a lot of respect from oddsmakers; perhaps too much respect. France wasn’t that impressive in qualifying and they still struggle to score goals. They do have a top keeper in Lloris but a lot of teams can say they have a top player in goal. If Griezmann doesn’t score this team is going to struggle. France is probably good enough to get out of the group stage but it is hard to see them doing enough to get past the semifinals at the 2018 World Cup.
