France vs Mexico World Cup betting

France are considered the class team in Group A but they don't look capable of playing to their full potential so remain a team to take on in the remaining World Cup games. Their class players and reputation ensure they are constantly favourites and that is great news when you want to take them on and back against them.

Mexico are a pretty good team, in fact they are similar to previous years, they have some very good attacking players, not so many in defensive areas, and they are a team capable of reaching the second round.

France vs Mexico odds and tips

France have struggled to score goals in recent games and do not look a very good team so Mexico are great value, although this might well end up all square and the draw goes down as the most likely result. Most France games have been low scoring despite some immense attacking talent, they should be able to score past Mexico who do not have the greatest defence in the world so 1-1 appeals at the most likely scoreline and a decent bet in the correct score market, that should also make it an under 2.5 goals game, although only just.

Tough to call which team will score first in this game so maybe best to back one player from each team to score first, the total odds will still be better than backing one player in the anytime scorer market. For Mexico it could be Arsenal's Carlos Vela who is the biggest threat to the France goal and he rates the best bet for them whilst Nicolas Anelka has always been a great goalscorer and with no Karim Benzema in the squad he rates the best striker for France.

France vs Mexico best bets

We fancy the draw but if the game does end up a draw there is probably an 80% chance it will be by a 1-1 scoreline and that makes it best value to go for a 1-1 draw rather than backing the draw in the match odds. The 1-1 scoreline is a great price. Back a 1-1 draw at odds of 6.0 with William Hill where new customers get free £30 in bets when depositing just £10.
