France U21 vs Ukraine U21 Prediction: Can the Ukrainians beat the favourites to reach the semi-finals?

Prediction for the match between France and Ukraine, which will take place on July 2. Check the team conditions and choose several betting options.

The French youth team made it through the Euro 2023 group stage without problems. They qualified for the playoffs ahead of schedule, scoring a combined maximum of nine points in three rounds. First, they beat Italy 2:1, then Norway 1:0, and in the third leg, they crushed Switzerland 4:1. The French team is now a step away from the semi-finals, regarded as the favorites to win the tournament. Indeed, France's group was far from their greatest opponents, but they undoubtedly played to their strengths.

The Ukraine national team has also had a great start at UEFA EURO 2023. The Ukrainians beat Croatia (2:0) and Romania (1:0) in the opening rounds but failed to earn three points in the third round. But their opponent was already severe - Spain. The team played with them in a draw (2:2), with their second goal coming in the dying minutes. As a result, the Ukraine national side advanced to the tournament's quarterfinals from second place in the group and qualified against France.

As good as the Ukraine national team was at UEFA EURO 2023, their performance has surely ended. Now they have an unbelievably tough opponent on its way to glory. The French will likely have problems in the semi-finals or finals, but they will be at a different level. For now, we think that Sylvain Ripaul's team will be able to show their class and the best football. We're betting on a clear win for France.
