UEFA Women’s Euro 2022: Italy v. France

What will be the match result?

Italy: Win or Draw

France: Win

 

Current odds:

Italy: Win or Draw: (+125)

France: Win: (-175)

 

• France enter this UEFA Women’s Euro edition still aiming for a first major title, after reaching the quarter-finals in their previous five major competition appearances, excluding the Olympic Games. The world’s #3 ranked side played out a dominant qualifying campaign, averaging more than five goals per game (5.5) while impressively dropping only two points (W7, D1).

• A huge task clearly awaits Italy, against a nation that they have lost three of the last four competitive H2Hs against (D1). Unlike France, they have won their opening game just once across the last four Euro editions (D1, L2), but FIFA’s 14th-ranked Women’s nation had a solid qualifying campaign (W8, D1, L1), making them more than mere bit-players on paper.

• With 25 goals in 30 international appearances, Marie-Antoinette Katoto will be the main offensive asset of the French team. At 32, Cristiana Girelli remains Italy’s number one threat, impressively finishing as her nation’s top scorer in the Euro 2022 (G9) and World Cup 2023 (G8) qualifiers.
