France confidently thrashed the Netherlands, cementing their chances of finishing first in the group. France have one of the strongest squads in the world right now, and they have reached the World Cup final twice in a row for good reason.
Ireland, of course, are a formidable opponent, especially when they play at home. But they will need more than that to hold off the French onslaught.
Prediction: France to win. We recommend the “2 Win” bet, odds 1.47
