Finland vs France: There could be a sensation in Helsinki

Finland will take on France in the 2022 World Cup qualifiers. See what the opposition is up to and get tips on what to bet on. We have more than one betting option at a time!

In the last round of qualifications, Finland showed themselves excellently and managed to beat Bosnia and Herzegovina away with 3-1. Moreover, the Finns had ten men on from 37 minutes! They climb up to second place in Group D and now have a good chance of qualifying for the play-offs. Currently, they have 11 points, with third-placed Ukraine having nine. Correspondingly, Finland need to score points in the upcoming game or hope that the Ukrainians will not beat the Bosnians.

France secured a direct link to the Mundial in Qatar only last time round when they edged Kazakhstan 8-0. Thus, the French are leading Group D with 15 points. France have won four games in seven qualifying matches, with three rather strange draws (twice 1-1 with Ukraine and 1-1 with Bosnia and Herzegovina).

We believe that Finland can create a sensation in Helsinki. It would seem that the French are the defending World Champions, but even in this qualifying group, they have drawn three sets against modest opponents. All the more so for this match, Didier Deschamps is likely to rotate the squad, as they have a direct ticket to the 2022 World Cup anyway. As insurance, we propose to bet on a positive handicap of the home team.

• Handicap 1 (+1) for 1.69;
• 1X for 2.15;
• W1 for 5.25.
