Match Prediction: France (Women) vs. Germany (Women)
The French team displayed impressive attacking play during the group stage. They were among the top three highest-scoring teams, marking the first time in their history they scored 11 goals in a Euro. Moreover, France scored in all 9 official matches in 2025. However, Laurent Bonadei's side did not keep a clean sheet in their group, conceding even against Wales, who, along with Portugal, were the least effective teams in the tournament.
Germany scored only 5 goals, but Christian Vuk's side showed an attacking focus in every game. The team took over 50 shots on goal in total against Denmark and Poland, and reaching double figures in this metric against Sweden was hindered by a first-half sending-off. Defensively, Germany lacked reliability: among all the teams reaching the playoffs, Germany, along with Norway, had the worst record for goals conceded (5 goals).
My prediction: Total over 2.5 goals
