France vs Guinea Team Overview
France
French hopes of Olympic glory in their home tournament will likely depend on their outcome in this second round of matches on Saturday. A victory will be a popular France vs Guinea prediction, and that would likely be enough to secure their progression following a 3-0 win over the USA on Wednesday. Alexandre Lacazette was among the scorers in that opening night win.
Jean-Philipe Mateta could be a standout player for France in this second match, as his imposing figure could be a difference against a physical Guinea side. The Crystal Palace striker enjoyed an excellent campaign in England’s top flight last term, and he has netted twice in two matches for the Olympic team this year.
Guinea
Guinea’s hopes of progressing to the next round of the Olympic Summer Games 2024 will hinge on a positive outcome in their match against France, as they opened their campaign against New Zealand with a defeat. Guinea were outplayed in their opening match, conceding the second goal with just 12 minutes remaining.
Guinea are making their first appearance at the Olympics this summer, but their performances across the last couple of years don’t appear to stand out for positive reasons. The nation were disappointing at last summer’s Cup of Nations, finishing fourth after winning just once in four matches.
France vs Guinea Prediction
- Pick: France (-2)
- Odds: 2.29 (22Bet)
- Score prediction: France 4-0 Guinea
This should be France’s most straightforward match in the group stage on paper. Their attacking talent means that they are extremely hard to oppose when making selections for this fixture, and we fully expect them to win by at least a two-goal margin against an inferior rival.
France vs Guinea Prediction, Betting Tip
- Pick: Jean-Philipe Mateta to Score
- Odds: 1.95 (22Bet)
Palace’s in-form Jean-Philipe Mateta could be the standout selection to find the back of the net on Saturday. He has already scored in each of his appearances for the Olympic team after netting 19 in 39 appearances for Palace last season across all competitions.
