Top France vs. Sweden predictions
After examining Sweden vs. France from every angle, Green is leaning Over 3.5 total goals (+106). No team can top the firepower of France as Mbappe and Ousmane Dembele each have four goals, tied for second-most in the tournament. The French have found the back of the net 10 times in the World Cup, which is tied for the most of any team, and no nation has more than their 22 on-target shot attempts. France aren't quite as dominant in the defensive third and have allowed goals to undermanned sides in Norway and Senegal, so Sweden, which scored five goals in a group stage match, should play a part in the Over hitting as well.
"The [French] defense has looked a little shaky at times, and France's midfield isn't as strong as Spain's or Portugal's, but the French attack is phenomenal. That gives them a great chance of outscoring any opponent -- especially a Sweden team that leaks goals," Green told SportsLine. "Alexander Isak, Viktor Gyökeres, Yasin Ayari, and Anthony Elanga are dangerous in attack for Sweden, and they could cause problems for the French defense."
