2022 World Cup: France vs. Denmark odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Saturday’s France vs. Denmark odds and lines, with World Cup soccer expert picks, predictions and best bets.

France (1 win, 0 losses, 0 draws) takes on Denmark (0-0-1) in a Group D group stage match on Saturday with kickoff at Stadium 974 set for 11 a.m. ET (FOX). Below, we analyze Tipico Sportsbook’s lines around the France vs. Denmark odds, and make our best World Cup bets, picks and predictions.

France put on an absolutely dominating performance over Australia in Tuesday’s 4-1 victory. France has an ultra-deep lineup and arguably the best player in the tournament in F Kylian Mbappe.

Other household names like F Ousmane Dembele and F Antoine Griezmann will likely take the field for France. We might see F Oliver Giroud break Frances’s all-time scoring record; he’s tied with Thierry Henry at 51 goals.

Denmark has top-tier talent like F Andreas Christiansen, M Christian Eriksen, and M Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg playing in the English Premier League and La Liga.

Denmark drew their first match with Tunisia 0-0 in which they allowed more shots (13) than they took (11). Nonetheless, this Denmark side is typically seen as a dark horse and should be difficult to defeat.

Prediction

France 2, Denmark 1

Moneyline (ML)

LEAN FRANCE (-130).

France just looked too good against Australia to bet against. With France being the 4th-ranked team in FIFA’s world rankings, this puts them in the driver’s seat with heavy odds.

However, the value for France makes sense and is playable. Considering Tunisia had more shots than Denmark, France should be able to get loose and make them pay.

Over/Under (O/U)

BET OVER 2.5 (+110).

Overall, Denmark does have a strong team (10th in FIFA rankings) and has the offensive weapons to put the ball in the back of the net. They were able to get double-digit shots on Tuesday, but just were not able to put any in the back of the net.

France has the talent up top to score 2 or 3 with ease and could have piled it onto Australia. Denmark went Over 2.5 in 5 of 8 games in 2022 prior to the World Cup.
