Game Analysis
This is priced as a mismatch. France is the shortest price on a book of 1.44 / 5.20 / 6.64 (1 / X / 2), an implied 66.9%. Across the three outcomes the book reads 66.9% / 18.5% / 14.5% on an overround of 3.7%.
France are without 6 — Kylian Mbappé (Out - injured), Jean-Philippe Mateta (Out - injured), Théo Hernández (Out - injured), Warren Zaïre-Emery (Out - injured), William Saliba (Out - injured), Ibrahima Konaté (Out - injured). Losing Kylian Mbappé (7.15/10) is the kind of absence that moves a price.
Italy are without 6 — Filippo Mane (Out - injured), Matteo Dagasso (Out - injured), Jeff Ekhator (Out - injured), Bryan Cristante (Out - injured), Federico Dimarco (Out - injured), Nicolò Zaniolo (Out - injured).
Early lineups are in: France set up 4-2-3-1 against 4-3-3. See the pitch graphic above for the full XI.
France lean hardest on Adrien Rabiot (9.5), Mike Maignan (9.5), Jules Koundé (9.5) on our Player Index — how much of the side's football each man accounts for, out of 10. It measures involvement and cover, not performance.
Kylian Mbappé is out for France — index 7.0, against 8.8 for the best cover we hold at his position. Well covered.
Italy lean hardest on Nicolò Barella (8.8), Gianluigi Donnarumma (8.8), Sandro Tonali (8.8) on our Player Index — how much of the side's football each man accounts for, out of 10. It measures involvement and cover, not performance.
Nicolò Zaniolo is out for Italy — index 6.5, against 8.8 for the best cover we hold at his position. Well covered.
The projected score for this one is France 2 - 1 Italy, a home win by 1 with 3 goals in it — on the right side of the 2.5 line.
The read: France at 1.44 is short enough that the value, if there is any, sits on the handicap or in the goals market rather than the outright.
