France

Didier Deschamps' side defeated Belgium 2-1 away in the previous round. As a result, the French team secured their third consecutive victory in the Nations League for only the second time in their history. The nine points collected place France in second position in the group standings. France needs just one point from the remaining two matches to advance to the quarter-finals.

Defender Lucas Digne will not play due to suspension.

• The team has not lost in regular time in 7 of their last 10 home matches in the Nations League (6 wins, 1 draw).
• France has not scored more than twice in 90 minutes in their last five home games in this tournament.
• A maximum of three goals have been scored in regular time in 4 of France's last 5 home matches in the Nations League.

Israel

Ran Ben Shimon's side suffered a 1-4 defeat away to Italy in the last round. Consequently, Israel has lost four consecutive matches in the Nations League, including two heavy defeats in their last two games. The team has not earned a single point in the current edition of the tournament and sits at the bottom of the group. A loss to France would eliminate Israel's chances of staying in League A.

• The team has not won in regular time in 6 of their last 8 away matches in the Nations League (2 draws, 4 losses).
• At least three goals have been scored in 90 minutes in 5 of Israel's last 7 away games in this tournament.
• Both teams have scored in regular time in 6 of Israel's last 7 away matches in the Nations League.

France vs. Israel: Match Prediction

At home, France aims to play from a position of strength, which positively impacts their scoring: in 8 of their last 10 home matches in the Nations League, the team has scored during regular time. However, the defensive line is not always flawless at home: during the same period, France has kept just three clean sheets in 90 minutes.

Credit must be given to Israel for their bold play in League A – Ran Ben Shimon's side has scored in each of their four matches in the elite division of the Nations League. Moreover, the team's scoring streak in this tournament extends to nine matches. At the same time, Israel consistently makes defensive mistakes: they have not kept a clean sheet in their last nine away matches in the Nations League.

I expect Israel to find the net at least once against France, and there is no doubt about the attacking prowess of Didier Deschamps' team. My prediction: Both teams to score – yes
