France vs. Germany: Match Prediction
The French displayed impressive attacking play during the group stage, ranking among the top three most prolific teams and scoring 11 goals in the Euros for the first time in their history. Moreover, France has scored in all 9 official matches in 2025. However, Laurent Bonadei's side did not keep a clean sheet in their group, conceding even to Wales, one of the tournament's least prolific teams alongside Portugal.
The Germans scored only 5 goals, but Christian Wück's squad demonstrated an attacking mindset in every match. They took over 50 shots in total against Denmark and Poland, and reaching double digits in shots against Sweden was hampered by a first-half red card. Defensively, Germany lacked reliability: among all the teams reaching the playoffs, they, alongside Norway, had the worst defensive record (5 goals conceded).
My prediction: Total over 2.5 goals
