France vs Spain Tips
Here are our top three World Cup betting tips and the best free bets ahead of this game.
Tip 1: France to win
When two powerhouses meet on the world's biggest stage, inevitably, there is plenty of anticipation.
Of course, the dichotomy of styles, which pits one of the tournament's best attacks in France (16 goals) against the most proficient defence in Spain (one goal conceded), could provide the spark.
France, who are aiming to reach the World Cup Final for the third consecutive edition, have been irrepressible at times, and the forward line has exploited space superbly.
Spain, in the meantime, has been probing, and they have made the most of their substitutions, but France is superb on the counter.
Something has to give. Although Spain has beaten them three times in their past four clashes, France is proving why they are the bookies' favourite, and I think they will come out on top.
Tip 2: Kylian Mbappé to score the first or last goal
Kylian Mbappé has been a thorn in most sides this World Cup, and he has been lethal in front of goal.
Indeed, eight strikes attest to this, putting him level with Lionel Messi, although Messi has offered up one more assist, giving him the edge in the Golden Boot race.
While a stuttered run-up saw Mbappé miss a penalty against Morocco, he has magic in his boots, and he can turn games on their head.
To shake things up slightly, I've gone with Mbappé to net either the opening or the last goal, and this comes with an inviting price.
Tip 3: France to win, Under 2.5 cards, Ousmane Dembélé over 0.5 shots on target
France have so far lived up to their hype, and while Spain will be their toughest assignment to date, Didier Deschamps' men could win through to the Final.
Add to your bet builder for this to be a clean contest. Spain and France picked up just two yellow cards between them across their quarter-final ties, so Under 2.5 cards is leaping out here.
Round things off with Ousmane Dembélé, who has had a 31% conversion rate and scored five goals at this year's World Cup, to give Spain plenty to think about. Dembélé to register over 0.5 shots on target is worth pursuing.
