LiontipsFrance vs Israel. Forecast (odds 2.04) and bets on the Nations League match
Command Analysis
Current form
France is approaching the start of the fifth round of the Nations League in second place in the table, one point behind Italy. Didier Deschamps' men allowed themselves the only slip-up in the first round, when they lost to the Italians at home (1:3). They then managed to beat Belgium twice (2:0 at home and 2:1 away), and also easily dealt with Israel (4:1). As in the last training camp, the national team will play without Kylian Mbappe. However, even without him, there are people in the attack who can score goals. Kolo-Muani scored a double against the Belgians in the previous match. The defense line is a bit of a concern, as the team has only kept one clean sheet in four games in the current Nations League.
Disqualifications and injuries
Mbappe has not been called up to the national team. Fofana, Bade and Tchouaméni are out due to injury. Lucas Digne is serving a suspension.
Interesting trends for betting
- In three of the last five matches, the French team did not win in the first half
- Four of France previous five home games in the Nations League have failed to produce more than three goals
Probable line-up: Maignan - Kounde, Konate, Saliba, Hernandez - Kante, Camavinga - Dembele, Olise, Barcola - Colo-Muani.
Current form
Israel was initially considered the outsider of the quartet, and this status could not be called into question. The team did not score a single point in four rounds. The defense cannot cope with the attack of the opponents, who are noticeably superior in class. So far, the only good thing is that they managed to score in all matches, and strictly one goal at a time, but this did not bring any points. In the last round, Ran Ben Shimon charges lost to Italy away with a score of 1:4. It should be noted that then the Israelis held off their opponents until the 41st minute, the score was 0:0, but then they still could not withstand the onslaught.
Disqualifications and injuries
Glazer and Turgeman are in the infirmary.
Interesting trends for betting
- Israel has been losing in the first half in three previous matches
- Israel have failed to win in six of their last eight away matches in the Nations League.
Estimated line-up: Daniel Peretz – Dasa, Faingold, Nahmias – Abada, Kanichovsky, Abu Fani, Khaziza – Glukh, Gendelman – Baribo.

8.70Tip and bets
Despite their decent dedication, the Israeli team clearly cannot compete on equal terms in the elite division of the Nations League. In their last two matches, the Israelis lost with the same score of 1:4 to France and Italy. It will definitely not be easier away today, the defense is not coping with its responsibilities, the difference in class is telling. We believe that the hosts will easily get another three points, even without Mbappe, there are many classy forwards in the team who are capable of creating and realizing moments due to their individual skill.
Our prediction is a victory for France with an Asian handicap (-2.5) at odds of 2.04
Bet on total
The Israeli team scored goals in all the matches they played and today, given the unstable play of the French in defense, a goal from the visitors will not be a big surprise. At the same time, the French team has no problems in attack and is capable of scoring several of its goals.
The second bet is total over 3.5 goals with odds of 1.97
Bet on corners
Let pay attention when choosing bets on the promising trend for corners. The French national team has not performed more than seven corners in its last 10 matches in the League of Nations. It is unlikely that this series will be interrupted today.
Forecast - total corners of the French team under 7.5 with odds of 1.62
