France and Sweden will battle for a place in the FIFA World Cup 2026 Round of 16 when they meet at New York-New Jersey Stadium in East Rutherford. Les Bleus enter the knockout stage with plenty of momentum, while Sweden will be hoping to upset one of the tournament favourites.
Didier Deschamps' side enjoyed a flawless group-stage campaign, collecting maximum points with victories over Senegal, Iraq and Norway. France scored 10 goals across those three matches, underlining their attacking quality. Sweden reached the Round of 32 as one of the best third-placed teams.

👉 Prediction: Over 2.5 Goals
France vs Sweden is set up to be a tough match, and we expect it to go over 2.5 goals.
With bookmakers offering odds of 1.4 on this outcome, there’s great value in betting on three or more goals being scored, especially considering the attacking strength of both teams.
👉 Prediction: Double Chance - X2
Sweden has proven to be a tough opponent for many sides, even in away games. As they head to to face France, our recommended bet is Sweden to win or draw in the Double Chance market.
