Italy vs France preview
Think we’re all in agreement we could do without this international break.
But one good thing to come out it is the very few top class clashes it has thrown up, this one very much included.
The Italians top the table with a smashing 13 points from five games so far, three clear of France who make the trip on Monday.
Italy were 1-0 winners at Belgium a few days ago thanks to an early Sandro Tonali goal, extending their run to four wins and one draw in their five games in this tough group on paper.
France huffed and puffed but were held to a 0-0 draw with Israel in a near-empty Stade de France.
Kylian Mbappe’s decision to stay at home at not be involved costing the French, with that earlier defeat to Italy at home leaving them needing a decent win here to leapfrog their opponents into top spot.

Italy vs France prediction and betting tips
Home win
The Italians are in a really good place at the minute and can wrap up this group with a win here.
Quality all over the pitch and can capitalise against a French side that were toothless the other night.
Beat France strongly in Paris just a couple of months ago.

Leading the line
There’s a choice up top for the Italians, with Mateo Retegui given the nod ahead of Moise Kean.
Retegui’s incredible 11 Serie A goals have him three clear of Kean, who is second in the scoring standings, and he can be given the task of leading the line again.
For a little insurance, we’re taking him to score anytime but the 5/1 about scoring first is playable when the team’s named.
