One of the favourites for the tournaments France open their account today with a match against some peoples dark horse Austria.
Austria finished 2nd in their group behind Belgium, ahead of Sweden, Azerbaijan and Estonia. Recent form for them is good with unbeaten run of 7 games with 6 wins and 1 draw. France won their group dropping just 2 points in 8 games. Ahead of Netherlands, Greece, Ireland and Gibraltar. Recent form is 5 wins, 2 draws and 1 loss.
Team news: No new injury problems for Austria but France have Aurelien Tchouameni out for this one.
Head-to-head statistics: 2 wins Austria, 1 draw and 3 wins France.
Betting selection – Despite Austria’s great form this is a superb France team with unreal depth. I take France -1 AH at 2.50 or 6-4 Williamhill.
