France vs Sweden Preview and Team News

France Team News

France have been in excellent form, with four victories in a row. At the 2026 FIFA World Cup, they have won every game they’ve played. Les Bleus appear to be one of the favorites to lift the trophy after falling short in the 2022 final. They’ve scored 10 goals and conceded a mere two.

Their latest performance was an emphatic 4-1 win over Norway in their final group-stage encounter, in which Ousmane Dembele scored a hat-trick.

Striker Kylian Mbappe, meanwhile, created a match-high four chances, recorded 10 touches in the opposition box, and registered two assists. Winger Desire Doué also impressed, tying for the joint-most shots (four) while scoring a goal.

Marcus Thuram is considered doubtful due to a calf injury.

France predicted lineup vs Sweden (4-2-3-1): Maignan; Hernandez, Lacroix, Upamecano, Kounde; Rabiot, Tchouameni; Doué, Olise, Dembele; Mbappe.

Sweden Team News

Sweden’s road to the Round of 32 has not been as smooth as France’s. They’ve recorded one win, one loss, and one draw in their first three matches of the FIFA World Cup.

Their most recent outing ended in a 1-1 draw with Japan, a game in which they kept 48% of the ball. The Blagult struggled to create quality chances, finishing with just 0.64 xG despite attempting 11 shots, five of which were on target.

Another area that needs improving is their passing – Sweden completed only 79% of their passes against Japan. Striker Victor Gyokeres, rated as one of the best in the world, recorded an assist, but failed to convert any of his chances, with none of his shots hitting the target. Fellow forward Alexander Isak, meanwhile, posted 63% passing accuracy.

Meanwhile, Isak Hien is a doubt due to a hamstring injury.

Sweden predicted lineup vs France (3-4-3): Zetterstrom; Gudmundsson, Starfelt, Lagerbielke; Stroud, Ayari, Lindelof, Bernhardsson; Isak, Gyokeres, Elanga.

France vs Sweden Prediction

  • Pick: France to win
  • Odds: -370 (20Bet)
  • Correct score prediction: France 3-1 Sweden

France enter this matchup as deserved favorites. Les Bleus have one of the most experienced squads in the tournament and have consistently delivered on the biggest stage. They last won the title in 2018 before finishing as runners-up in 2022.

The gulf in quality between these teams is also reflected in the FIFA rankings, with France sitting third and Sweden 38th. Les Bleus have beaten the Blagult in four of their last five meetings, giving them a clear edge in the head-to-head record.

France vs Sweden Prediction, Betting Tip

  • Pick: Kylian Mbappe to score
  • Odds: -149 (20Bet)

Mbappe is the standout anytime goalscorer pick. He is currently second in the Golden Boot race with four goals, just behind Lionel Messi, and also shares the tournament lead with the Argentine in total goal contributions with six.

The Real Madrid attacker has been in strong form, with four goals and two assists in three appearances.

He is also coming off another prolific club campaign, having scored 43 goals across all competitions for Los Blancos in 2025-26. With Michael Olise, who is second in big chances created (three), providing excellent service, Mbappe should receive plenty of opportunities to add to his tally.
