France to Win
Didier Deschamps men were upstaged by Switzerland in the knockout rounds of Euro 2020 and France will surely be out for blood in their 2022 World Cup qualifiers. With Paul Pogba starting the campaign in red-hot form and Olivier Giroud settling without a hiccup at the San Siro, France should make little work of Bosnia and Herzegovina. Les Bleus's pace and dept should work in their favour and we expect them to secure the second-half in their favour.
Total Goals – Over 2.5
Over the years, only one of the duels between France and Bosnia-Herzegovina has finished with three goals. That tally should increase in this meeting as the Dragons travel to Strasbourg. While they have not scored in four competitive fixtures, the French have found scoring easy. Three of their last five fixtures have concluded with an Over 2.5 goals scoreline and this World Cup qualifier should not be any different.
Both Teams to Score – No
Didier Deschamps' men have not kept a clean sheet in their last three outings. However, in the three matches prior, Germany, Bulgaria and Wales were shut out in impressive victories. With the Bosnians failing to score in their last four outings, competitive or otherwise, we expect them to fail in troubling the scorers.

Match Preview of France vs Bosnia-Herzegovina
Les Bleus take on the Dragons to maintain the top spot in Group D
France took the foot of the pedal in the first knockout round of Euro 2020 against Switzerland and paid the ultimate price on penalties. Didier Deschamps will not make the same mistake again and his charges will surely go the complete 90 minutes on full throttle. Bosnia-Herzegovina are their lucky rivals and will press their luck as Les Bleus take the pitch without injured N'golo Kante.
The Dragons do not have the selection pool or other issues such as unsettled stars. Edin Džeko continues to go strong at the age of 35 and will go out to punish the French defence. The more pressing concern for Ivaylo Petev will be the mentality of his charges. Bosnia has not won in their last 13 international fixtures, losing eight and drawing five times.
