As part of the Euro 2024 group D stage, France will face off against Austria, Netherlands, and Poland. The Les Blues will hope to display superior performances in these matchups as they will hope to advance to the round of 16. In the group stage, France are one of the favourite teams to win the entire tournament since they only have the Netherlands as an obstacle. Meanwhile, Austria and Poland are by no means easy matches, but with match winners across the pitch for Didier Deschamps, we’re still backing France to win Group D and advance to the Round of 16.

Mbappe is the market leader for the UEFA Player of the Tournament and Top Goalscorer; given his performance in the World Cup final, in which he scored a hat-trick, it’s safe to say he can make all the difference of his best this matches.
Expert Betting Tips
Didier Deschamps's boys advanced to the promotion group stage by securing 22 points in 8 matches in the qualification group B. Therefore, they will hope to showcase superior performances in group D standing. I expect them to come on top of the group by securing over 6.5 score points in the group standing since I expect them to have a perfect unbetaen streak in all these matches. Furthermore, I can count on Kylian Mbappe's scoring ability in all these matches. Hence, I predict Kylian Mbappe will claim the top scorer player, and I will also back France to reach the final stage and secure the trophy.
