The Italy v France odds for this Italy France betting Group C match has the Italians as narrow favourites to beat the French. Italy can be backed at 11/8 and France 7/4, while the draw is 5/2. It is a crucial game for both sides as a win should qualify them in second place in the Group, provided of course that Holland continue their winning ways and beat Romania. That game should not concern either of these two teams, who must concentrate solely on playing at their best and win. Holland hammered both of them last week by margins of 3 goals which, with the best will in the world, must have shattered their confidence. They come into this crucial match, shell-shocked, confused and desperate that could possibly result in a poor match, with neither side wanting to give anything away.

If anything, World Champions Italy, have looked the better team so far and with their vast experience, should be able to overcome their difficulties by repeating their World Cup Final triumph over the French. Reports suggest that there is bad feeling in the French Camp. Coach, Raymond Domeneche’s public criticism of his players went down like a lead balloon and seems to have done nothing in terms of team motivation. It remains to be seen how the French sets out its stall, but we favour an Italian win, probably by the odd goal.
Under normal circumstances a win would be enough for them to qualify for the quarter finals, but they had better hope that Romania do not upset their aspirations by getting the better of Holland in the other Group match today. The Bookmakers seem to think they will and therefore they list the Italians at 11/4 to qualify. Might be worth taking!
