The defending champions come into this match having endured a disastrous Nations League campaign where they won just one of their six matches and narrowly missed relegation. Australia made it into the finals after coming through the inter-confederation playoffs where they beat the United Arab Emirates 2-1 and then needed penalties to beat Peru and secure their ticket to Qatar. The match starts at 6pm UK time.
France are heavy favourites in this match at odds of 1.30 while the visitors are long shots at 9.50. The draw comes in at odds of 5.50. France don’t have the best of form coming into this tournament but we still expect them to win the match. France have struggled to keep clean sheets recently therefore we suggest a bet on both teams to score at odds of 2.20.

France - Australia: Form Analysis
France had an excellent World Cup qualifying campaign where they won their group, finishing six points ahead of second place Ukraine. They remained unbeaten with five wins and three draws in their eight group matches. France were in a different class during the qualifiers, scoring 18 goals while only conceding three. They proceeded to have a disastrous Nations League and will be hoping that they can bounce back when it matters the most. One of their biggest issues in the tournament was their lack of goals, scoring just five in their six matches. Australia have shown very good recent form, winning their last five matches which includes the penalty shootout playoff win against Peru. The biggest change in these matches has been their defence that has kept clean sheets in their last three matches. They have only lost two of their last 11 matches across all competitions with six wins and three draws.
The major news coming out of the French camp is that Ballon D'Or winner Karim Benzema has been ruled out of the World Cup with a left thigh injury on Saturday dealing a serious blow to defending champions France's hopes of retaining the trophy. Coach Didier Deschamps is yet to name a replacement for the Ballon d'Or winner, he has until Monday to do so. He has also been forced to swap Presnel Kimpembe and Christopher Nkunku out for Axel Disasi and Randal Kolo Muani respectively. Olivier Giroud, Antoine Griezmann, Kylian Mbappe and Ousmane Dembele are expected to form the attacking quartet in Benzema's absence and with Varane possibly not being risked for the opening matchday, Ibrahima Konate and Dayot Upamecano could line up at the back. For Australia, Hibernian striker Martin Boyle has been nursing a knee problem and has been unable to train with the team in the lead-up to Tuesday's game. Boyle has not been ruled out of the tournament yet, but Marco Tilio is on standby as a possible replacement otherwise manager Graham Arnold has all members of his squad fit and raring to go.
France - Australia Key Points
France have managed just one clean sheet in their last six matches.
Despite struggling in recent outings, France have still managed to score in eight of their last 10 matches, totaling 22 goals during that stretch.
France were still creating chances during their Nations League performance, despite only scoring six goals. Les Blues were able to create 14 clear cut scoring chances during their six matches.
France were extremely open at the back in their last six matches, allowing 12 clear cut scoring chances and conceding seven goals.
Australia have been in good goal scoring form, finding the net in four of their last five outings for a total of seven goals.
France won the only previous World Cup encounter between these sides 2-1 which was also the opening match of the last tournament. The game was very eventful with two penalties and an own goal. France will be hoping that they have an immediate improvement in form to avoid a repeat of the 2002 World Cup campaign where they endured the worst ever title defence, failing to score in the group stages. Australia have been excellent in defence recently and have also been finding the net regularly. Only once in their last five matches have they failed to score but eventually won that match on penalties. They will fancy breaching the French defence that has shown signs of weakness therefore we are backing both teams to score in this match.
France vs Australia - Other Interesting Predictions
France to win
France will be too strong for the Australians even though losing Benzema will be a major blow to them. They still have the likes of Mbappe and Giroud who can provide the goals.
Over 2.5 goals
France will want to make a statement in their first match defending their title and will want to put the opponents under pressure from the onset. We are expecting them to score at least two goals and Australia to also get on the score sheets.
