We’ve compared all the leading bookmakers and found out where the best value lies, so check out the latest betting odds below.
Kylian Mbappe Odds to Score
Having been the best young player in 2018 as France lifted the trophy, Mbappe could land the Golden Boot this time, having scored five goals for his country in Qatar. The Real Madrid forward hit three in the group stages before notching a double against Poland in the last 16. If Morocco are to have any chance of causing a shock, they’ll need to try and put the shackles on Mbappe.

Olivier Giroud Odds to Score
Giroud is France’s top scorer with 53 goals, and he’s been impressive in Qatar, scoring four goals to help guide his country to another semi-final. He bagged the winner against England in the quarter-finals and is a constant threat for the French - can he bag another goal to move him level with team-mate Kylian Mbappe at the top of the Golden Boot charts?

Antoine Griezmann Odds to Score
Griezmann is yet to score at this World Cup, but he has amassed 42 international goals in 115 appearances for France. Despite not scoring, he has been an instrumental player for the French, providing three assists in Qatar, including setting up both Les Bleus goals against England. In addition, he’s scored six goals for Atletico Madrid and is a player Morocco will need to keep a close eye on.

Youssef En-Nesyri Odds to Score
En-Nesyri got the vital winner over Portugal in the quarter-final, following up his strike against Canada in the group stages that saw them qualify as group winners. The Sevilla striker has been on West Ham’s radar, but you can be sure that other clubs will now be taking a closer look after a breakout World Cup, and he’ll fancy his chances of scoring against a French defence that’s struggled for clean sheets.
- Youssef En-Nesyri to score first - 12/1 with bet65
- Youssef En-Nesyri to score anytime - 11/2 with bet65
Hakim Ziyech Odds to Score
Ziyech has been a star for Morocco at Qatar, guiding them to victories over Belgium, Spain and Portugal and scoring the opening goal in their 2-1 win over Canada. Having only recently returned to the national squad, Ziyech has an impressive strike rate of 19 goals in 48 appearances for his country. He’s scored two in his last six starts and looks like a big price to get on the scoreboard against the French in this massive clash.

- Hakim Ziyech to score anytime - 7/1 with Betfair
