The Scout: World Cup Matchday 15 Preview, 4 Dec

Posted on | Posted by The Scout

Round of 16 (2)

France v Poland

France will revert to their strongest side following the last group game defeat to Tunisia. Kylian Mbappe, Olivier Giroud, Antoine Griezmann and Ousmane Dembele will be the front 4 and have enough quality to put any team to the sword. Aurelien Tchouameni and Adrien Rabiot return to the base of the midfield.

Wojciech Szczesny has been in stunning form for Poland, and he will need to have another big game if they are to cause a surprise. Coach Czeslaw Michniewicz has been accused of being too negative in his approach so it will be interesting to see if both Robert Lewandowski and Arkadiusz Milik start up front. The Poles have no injury concerns heading into the contest, but 6 players are walking the yellow card suspension tightrope.

WIN France @ $1.30*

England v Senegal

England coach Gareth Southgate has a good selection headache going into the Senegal game following strong performances from Phil Foden and Marcus Rashford against Wales. They will push for a place in the team, along with the now fit Kyle Walker. Squad depth will be a factor the further we go into the tournament, and England have plenty of that.

A fully fit Senegal would be a daunting prospect but with Sadio Mane and Cheikou Kouyate out injured, and Idrissa Gueye suspended, they face an uphill battle here. Ismaila Sarr and Iliman Ndiaye have impressed so will again support main goal threat, Boulaye Dia.

WIN England @ $1.53*

*Odds correct as at 9am, 4th December 2022.
