France will this afternoon look to make it two wins from two at the World Cup as they face Denmark in Group D.
A resounding 4-1 victory over Australia got Les Blues’ campaign off to the perfect start, with Kylian Mbappe in sparkling form and Olivier Giroud drawing level with Thierry Henry as France’s all-time leading goalscorer.
This looks set to be their most difficult match though, up against a Denmark side that they have lost to twice already this year in the Nations League.

France vs Denmark prediction
Despite that brief scare after falling behind, France looked incredibly sharp in forward areas against Australia, with Mbappe in particular looking right up for it.
Denmark meanwhile looked toothless, for all there was some nice build-up, and will likely have to rely on their final group-stage match if they are to reach the last-16.
France to win, 2-0.
