Germany vs. France Betting Analysis
Germany Preview
A shambolic 12 months for Germany finally hit breaking point over the weekend, as Hansi Flick was finally given his marching orders after winning just 12 of his 25 matches since taking over in August 2021.
The latest of those was an alarming 4-1 defeat against Japan in Wolfsburg on Saturday. Flick’s reign will go down as one of the worst in German history, as he also oversaw elimination at the group stage at the 2022 World Cup.
Things will need to improve quickly to keep fans on side, as the start of their home European Championships creeps even nearer into sight.
Former German head coach Rudi Voller will take temporary charge of the team for this match against France. Voller previously managed the national side between 2000 and 2004, and led the side to the final at the 2002 World Cup.
France Preview
France will be the latest visitors to Germany looking to inflict a miserable result on the hosts of next summer’s EUROs. The French have largely been unimpressive but effective throughout qualification, with their standout win coming in the form of a 4-0 win over the Netherlands in Paris in March. Since losing the World Cup final against Argentina, the French have won each of their last five international matches.
Over that period, they have failed to concede a goal, and have netted eleven in the process. The latest of those was a straightforward 2-0 victory over Ireland on Thursday, with Aurelien Tchouameni and Marcus Thuram netting the goals. It could be hard to overlook the dominant French when assessing the soccer matches this week.
Updates
France have no fresh injury concerns following their win over Ireland last week, with Kylian Mbappe and Antoine Griezmann both likely to start. Voller will likely make wholesale changes from the team that was beaten easily by Japan, with Thomas Muller and Robin Gosens likely to be handed starts.

Germany vs. France Betting Prediction
It is incredibly challenging to overlook Germany’s recent troubles when assessing the free soccer picks this week. Germany were brushed aside by Japan, and France boasts much more quality in the final third than the Japanese. We expect to see much improved German performance, but the preference remains for the visitors.
- Pick: France (+120)
