Match Preview
In the opening game of Group C, the 1998 World Cup (WC) winners France face Australia at the Kazan Arena. The French are expected to dominate Group C, whilst the Australians will be hoping for a positive result against one of the favourites to lift the cup. |
France have so far met all expectations, and finished top of WC qualifying Group A, ahead of Sweden and the Netherlands. After three straight friendly wins against Russia (3-1), Ireland (2-0) and Italy (3-1), Didier Deschamps’ side come into this one on the back of a surprising 1-1 draw against USA at the Stade de France. |
Australia had a difficult WC qualification campaign, finishing third in AFC qualifying Group B, before defeating Syria and Honduras in the subsequent playoff ties. After a 4-1 friendly loss away to Norway, Bert van Marwijk’s men reacted well with a 0-0 home draw against Colombia, and two straight wins against the Czech Republic (4-0) and Hungary (2-1). |
In four previous meetings with Australia in all competitions, France have a record that currently stands at: W2, D1, L1. The last time both teams met was back in October 2013, and Australia were trounced 6-0 by France in a friendly game which saw Olivier Giroud score two goals. |
Players to watch: France’s best player in the 2018 WC qualifiers was Antoine Griezmann with four goals and four assists. |
Australia’s current top scorer Tim Cahill has 50 international goals, representing the all-time record of the national team. |
Stat attack: The French have lost only one of their last 12 matches in all competitions (W8, D3, L1), scoring at least two goals in nine of them. |
In all competitions, four of Australia’s last five fixtures have produced more than 2.5 goals (total). |
As a nation, Australia’s historical World Cup record stands at: W2, D3, L8. |
