Command Analysis
Canada
CanadaCurrent form
Canada may well get into the playoffs from the first place in the standings. At the moment, she is on it and has six points to her credit. Let's remind that in two previous meetings the national team celebrated success. First, she confidently dealt with Slovenia (4:0), and then literally defeated Latvia with a score of 7:1, without encountering resistance from the opponent.
Of course, the Maple Leafs spent most of the time in the match with the Latvians in the attack zone and scored a total of 37 shots. Marc-Andre Fleury also coped well with the duties assigned to him and fended off a total of 16 threats. Of course, the Canadians should be among the best offensively throughout the championship, because they have a powerful offensive line and take advantage of their chances perfectly.
Despite this, in the last match, Dean Evason's team, oddly enough, could not take advantage of a single majority attempt, although the opponent remained in the minority five times. It is worth saying that the Canadians will rely most of all on the second leg of the game, especially when they play against weak opponents, because they feel extremely comfortable on the far benches.
Disqualifications and injuries
Canada has no problems with the squad at this tournament.

France
FranceCurrent form
France is currently in the sixth position of the Group A standings and can only dream of reaching the playoffs. Of course, the main goal for the national team is to keep their registration in the division, and they will make every effort to do this. She was defeated in the opening two meetings, but was able to earn one point. True, the French could even get three points, but they could not bring the matter to a victorious end.
So, first they lost to Latvia (1-4), after which they had a two-goal advantage against Finland and even managed to score into an empty net, but they played poorly in the final two minutes of the third period and allowed the opponent to move the game into overtime, where the Finns were already stronger. However, it's still worth paying tribute to Yorick Trey's team, since his team looked very worthy against the background of a clear favorite.
If the team continues to play in the same way in subsequent meetings, it can cause trouble for many opponents. France's striking leader in attack is Bellemare, who has not scored yet, but has provided two assists.
Disqualifications and injuries
Alexandre Texier did not participate in the last two matches.
Interesting betting trends
- On average, France gets five minutes of penalty time.
- According to statistics, the French make 19 shots on target.

2.62Tip and bets
We think that in this confrontation it makes no sense to bet on the success of Canada, given the quotes offered by the bookmaker. The Canadians, of course, must succeed in this meeting, but they are unlikely to try to score as many goals as possible and try to defeat their opponent. Plus, in previous head-to-head matches, the French, as a rule, did not concede to the opponent with a huge difference in the score. We think that even now France will not lose by a five-goal margin.
Prediction - France wins with an Asian handicap (+4.5) on goals in 1.75
Betting on an individual total
France scored at least one goal in previous matches, and scored three goals in the match against Finland. The Canadians may not play this match at full concentration and make mistakes in their own zone a couple of times. By the way, in the three previous meetings out of five, the Maple Leafs regularly missed at least two times from the French.
We're betting on France's individual total of more than one puck per 1.75
Bet on the total total
The last meetings between the national teams turned out to be quite productive and took place with a large number of goals. Canada is usually not afraid to concede an extra goal, but it also makes great use of its moments. The Maple Leafs played their last match against Latvia with eight goals at all, so it makes sense to put more on the total in this case.
We take a total of more than 6.5 goals for 1.80
