Ukraine and France are set to lock horns at Tarczynski Arena in the Group D opener of the FIFA World Cup European qualifiers. Let's head into the match prediction.
Ukraine's preparation for the FIFA World Cup European qualifiers has been somewhat mixed. Starting with a 4-2 defeat against Canada, they managed to win 2-1 against New Zealand.
However, their overall performance has been convincing. They have lost just two of their last eight matches, recording four wins and two draws in the process.
Their last competitive match on the international stage was against Belgium on March 23rd. It was a UEFA Nations League clash. A 3-0 defeat saw them lose 4-3 on aggregate and were demoted to League B. That defeat also ended a five-match unbeaten run.
France, on the other hand, come into this match after settling for a bronze medal in the UEFA Nations League. On June 8th, they beat Germany 2-0 on the road in the third-place play-off.
Les Bleus will be hoping to make it two wins in a row when they take on Ukraine in the FIFA World Cup European qualifiers. So far, they have lost just two of their last nine matches.
However, they'll need to improve on their away form as they head into this clash with two losses in their last three outings.

Our Ukraine vs France Prediction
Ukraine have not been performing well and are likely to struggle for a favorable outcome in their opening match against France in the FIFA World Cup European qualifiers. Two losses in three matches do not inspire confidence that they'll be able to secure a win here.
France are winless in their last two matches against Ukraine. Before this unwanted run, they were on a two-match winning streak. On paper, they are the better side, and we see them winning here comfortably. Our Ukraine vs France prediction: France to win and over 2.5 goals.
