Betting suggestion:

This match places teams face to face with a great difference of quality, and therefore, it’s foreseeable that France will dominate the whole match and creates more danger to the opponent. However, as it’s a friendly one, it’s expectable that the two teams will opt for a more offensive playing style, making a bet on goals on the final scoreboard full of value.
