France head into an encounter against Netherlands this coming Friday. Played out at Stade de France, this is their first outing in the European Championship qualifying stage. The last time France faced off against Netherlands, Netherlands claimed a 2-0 win at Stadion Feijenoord.

Within group B, five nations are competing against each other, with France, Gibraltar, Greece, Ireland, Netherlands all striving to qualify for the European Championship. France sit as number three, while the Netherlands enter their match this coming Friday as number six in the FIFA world ranking.

Bookmakers expect a win for France, when they welcome Netherlands at Stade de France, and dropping points will surely leave them disappointed. However, their visitors have the quality to cause a stir on a good day. A draw could easily be the best call, when Netherlands travel to face France at Stade de France. The two sides look very evenly matched, and they'll be cautious of letting down their guard this coming Friday.

It is widely expected that France will easily finish atop their group, and it would be fairly shocking should they fail to qualify as group winners. Netherlands look well-placed among the favourites in the European Championship. Getting through the group should be a formality, and thereafter anything can happen.
