They opened their tournament with a win over Senegal, continued their momentum through the second game with a convincing victory against Iraq, and finished the group stage with a statement 4-1 win over Norway. The French attack has looked completely unstoppable, racking up ten goals across their three matches, making Didier Deschamps&#8217; team one of the most feared units in the knockout draw. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sweden secured progress from Group F by the skin of their teeth, finishing third with four points but advancing as one of the best third-placed sides. Their group stage campaign was a complete roller coaster, finishing with seven goals scored and seven conceded after a chaotic sequence of results. While their defence has looked alarmingly fragile at times, their frontline possesses more than enough individual quality to hurt teams on the transition. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This match adds another chapter to a competitive history between the two European sides, with France looking to assert their tournament credentials against an unpredictable Swedish outfit.<\/p>\n\n\n    <div class=\"sq-toplist\">\n        <div class=\"sq-toplist__items\">\n\t\t\t    <div\n            class=\"sq-toplist__item\"\n            data-entity-id=\"1381273\"\n            data-offer-id=\"1381470\"\n    >\n\t\t        <div class=\"sq-toplist__item-container\">\n            <div class=\"sq-toplist__offer\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\/en\/go\/bet365?q=gb-all-top-wof-s-spo\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" data-brand=\"bet365\"data-placement=\"bookmaker-offers-content-toplist\" data-rating=\"9.5\" data-position=\"1\" data-placement-details=\"logo\" class=\"sq-toplist__logo\" style=\"background:#01644a\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/04\/29162841\/bet365.svg\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium\" alt=\"Bet365 Logo\" \/><\/a>\t\t\t\t                <div class=\"sq-toplist__offer-box\">\n                    <span class=\"sq-toplist__bookmaker\">\n                        <a href=\"\/en\/go\/bet365?q=gb-all-top-wof-s-spo\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" data-brand=\"bet365\"data-placement=\"bookmaker-offers-content-toplist\" data-rating=\"9.5\" data-position=\"1\" data-placement-details=\"brand_name\">bet365<\/a>                    <\/span>\n                    <span class=\"sq-toplist__offer-title is-tablet-visible\">\n                        <a href=\"\/en\/go\/bet365?q=gb-all-top-wof-s-spo\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" data-brand=\"bet365\"data-placement=\"bookmaker-offers-content-toplist\" data-rating=\"9.5\" data-position=\"1\" data-placement-details=\"offer\">Use code SQUAWKA365 and bet \u00a310 to get \u00a330 in free bets<\/a>                    <\/span>\n                <\/div>\n                <span class=\"sq-toplist__offer-title is-mobile-visible\">\n                    <a href=\"\/en\/go\/bet365?q=gb-all-top-wof-s-spo\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" data-brand=\"bet365\"data-placement=\"bookmaker-offers-content-toplist\" data-rating=\"9.5\" data-position=\"1\" data-placement-details=\"offer\">Use code SQUAWKA365 and bet \u00a310 to get \u00a330 in free bets<\/a>                <\/span>\n            <\/div>\n            <div class=\"sq-toplist__buttons\">\n\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\/en\/go\/bet365?q=gb-all-top-wof-s-spo\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" data-brand=\"bet365\"data-placement=\"bookmaker-offers-content-toplist\" data-rating=\"9.5\" data-position=\"1\" data-placement-details=\"cta\" class=\"sq-btn sq-btn--secondary sq-btn--full\">Claim Offer<\/a>                <div class=\"sq-rating\">\n                    <span class=\"sq-rating__text\">Our Score<\/span>\n                    <span class=\"sq-rating__value\">9.5<\/span>\n                <\/div>\n                <a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/en\/bet\/betting-sites\/bet365-review\/\" class=\"sq-review-link\">\n                    <span>Read our review<\/span>\n                <\/a>\n            <\/div>\n\t\t\t        <ul class=\"sq-toplist__features\">\n                            <li class=\"sq-toplist__features-item\">Bet \u00a310 get \u00a330<\/li>\n                            <li class=\"sq-toplist__features-item\">Excellent Football Betting Options<\/li>\n                            <li class=\"sq-toplist__features-item\">Extensive Bet-Builder<\/li>\n                            <li class=\"sq-toplist__features-item\">Multi-Award Winning Bookmaker<\/li>\n                    <\/ul>\n                <\/div>\n\t\t            <div class=\"sq-toplist__item-tc\"><p>New customers can sign up using bonus code SQUAWKA365, bet \u00a310 and get \u00a330 in Free Bets.

Mike Maignan continues between the posts following an assured campaign.<sup><\/sup> The central defensive partnership of Dayot Upamecano and William Saliba is set to reunite, providing France with elite recovery speed and physical dominance against central threats.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"p-rc_c51a198fc5195b10-46\">Jules Kounde and Theo Hernandez will occupy the full-back positions, offering a balanced combination of defensive stability and overlapping width. In midfield, Aurelien Tchouameni anchors the engine room alongside Manu Kone, shielding the backline while giving full creative freedom to Michael Olise in the centra role, plus Ousmane Dembele and Desire Doue on the wings. Up front, Kylian Mbappe will spearhead the frontline, looking to exploit spaces with his direct running and clinical finishing.<\/p>\n\n\n<hr \/>\r\n<h2><strong>Bet \u00a310 &amp; Get \u00a330 in Free Bets with Bet365<\/strong><\/h2>\r\n<p>Not signed up to bet365 yet?

Kristoffer Nordfeldt starts in goal behind a central defensive three of Victor Lindelof, Isak Hien, and Gustaf Lagerbielke who face a monumental task containing France&#8217;s fluid front four. Alexander Bernhardsson and Gabriel Gudmundsson will be tasked with locking down the wide channels to prevent overloads from the French full-backs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The midfield unit will see Yasin Ayari and Jesper Karlstrom deployed in deeper, disciplined roles to disrupt central passing lanes and protect the defensive line. Anthony Elanga is expected to operate in the advanced creative role, acting as the primary transition outlet to spark counter-attacks. In the final third, Alexander Isak will start out wide to cut inside, while Viktor Gyokeres leads the line through the middle, using his raw physicality and hold-up play to isolate defenders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-france-vs-sweden-predicted-lineups\">France vs Sweden predicted lineups<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>France (4-2-3-1):<\/strong> Maignan; Kounde, Upamecano, Saliba, Hernandez; Tchouameni, Kone; Dembele, Olise, Doue; Mbappe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Sweden (3-5-2):<\/strong> Nordfeldt; Lagerbielke, Lindelof, Hien; Bernhardsson, Ayari, Elanga, Karlstrom, Gudmundsson; Gyokeres, Isak.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3><strong>Read more:<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li style=\"list-style-type: none\">\r\n<ul>\r\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/en\/bet\/football-tips\/world-cup-2026-betting-tips-predictions\/\"><strong>World Cup predictions &amp; tips<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\r\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/en\/outright-markets\/world-cup-outright-odds\/\"><strong>World Cup outright odds <\/strong><\/a><\/li>\r\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/en\/news\/world-cup-2026-fixtures-results\/\"><b>World Cup fixtures &amp; results<\/b><\/a><\/li>\r\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/en\/world-cup-2026-betting-offers\/\"><b>World Cup free bets<\/b><\/a><\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>France and Sweden meet in an intriguing Round of 32 clash at the 2026 World Cup on Tuesday at 10pm (UK time).
