England vs. France Prediction and Preview

England and France are playing in the final quarter-final at Qatar 2022. The match is taking place at the Al Bayt Stadium in Al Khor.

Neither England nor France see a clear favourite for the World Cup quarter-final. England have won both of their previous World Cups. France have lost just one of the last eight meetings between the two nations. England scored 12 goals in three of World cup games so far.

England and France are playing each other in the World Cup quarter-finals. Kylian Mbappe is looking to add to his World cup goalscoring tally. Kyle Walker believes that neither team is the underdogs or favourites. Adrien Rabiot believes England will have to be careful. England have been eliminated from their past eight World Cups knockout matches against European nations. England are looking for their first World Championship semi-final since 1966. Gareth Southgate is hoping to become the first England manager to go to two World Championships semi finals. France have the second-most shots (75) and third-highest expected goals (8.8).

Jude Bellingham has won possession more often than any team-mate at the tournament. He has been a key part of England winning the most high turnovers at this tournament (38).

Mbappe has scored more goals for France at this World Cup than Giroud (3). The only older player to score more than four goals at a single World cup was Roger Milla for Cameroon in 1990.

France have a 40.3% chance of winning, ahead of England's 32.4%. Extra time or penalties could be required in a tie this tight.
