A Showdown of David and Goliath: France Versus Gibraltar in Euro 2024 Qualifiers
Key Stats
– Christopher Nkunku boasts a scoring frequency of one goal every 61 minutes in his first three matches.
– Gibraltar’s defensive weakness and scoreless campaign predict a challenging encounter against a dominant French team.
The stage is set for another thrilling encounter in the Euro 2024 qualifiers as France squares off against Gibraltar on Friday. Although the odds heavily favour the World Cup heroes, France, this encounter presents an intriguing story of contrasting fortunes.
A Clash of Titans and Minnows
The French team has been continuing its impressive run since their commendable performance in the World Cup. Beginning their campaign in the Euro 2024 qualifiers with a commanding 4-0 triumph over the Netherlands and a gritty 1-0 victory against Ireland, they have indeed made their intentions clear. Their journey to Estadio Algarve in this third fixture of the Group stage will be crucial as they sit on top of the group, while Gibraltar lags, having lost both their opening fixtures.
Interestingly, this will be the inaugural face-off between the two nations, further enhancing the match’s appeal.

Assessing the Teams’ Track Records
Despite experiencing a couple of setbacks against Tunisia and Argentina, France’s recent journey has been nothing short of remarkable. Winning most of their matches in their latest set of qualifiers and World Cup fixtures, the French team displays an air of dominance.
Gibraltar, on the other hand, have been grappling with their form. Although they missed the opportunity to feature in the World Cup, their performance in the friendlies and Nations League fixtures preceding the qualifiers has been less than inspiring. A track record marked by losses makes France the clear favourites in the upcoming encounter.
A Tale of Offense and Defense
A surge of goals can be anticipated in this upcoming clash. Gibraltar’s shaky defence coupled with France’s aggressive offensive line form the perfect recipe for a high-scoring encounter. Furthermore, the French team’s perfect defensive record in this qualifiers season, not conceding a single goal while scoring five in the first two fixtures, poses a significant challenge for Gibraltar, who have yet to find the back of the net in this campaign.
While Gibraltar’s recent history shows some improvement, it’s clear that they still struggle in the European international football scene. Their last major triumph was a 2-0 win over Liechtenstein, but it’s been a downward slope since then with back-to-back 3-0 losses to Greece and the Netherlands.
The Emergence of New Stars
Looking into the French team’s lineup, one player who deserves a special mention is the young dynamo, Christopher Nkunku. In his short career, the 24-year-old midfielder has already made an impact on the national team, netting three goals in just three games in this campaign. His current scoring frequency stands at a goal every 61 minutes, and with an impressive goal conversion rate of 33%, Nkunku is set to be a considerable threat for Gibraltar’s defence.
The Prediction: Christopher Nkunku Protagonist In A Solid French’s Win
Christopher Nkunku is poised to be a protagonist in the forthcoming match. His current form, combined with Gibraltar’s vulnerable defence, opens a great opportunity for him to increase his goal tally in this campaign and backing him to score a brace looks value.
Moreover, with France’s superior attack and unyielding defence, we are tempted to predict a commanding 5-0 victory for the French team in the correct score market. Considering Gibraltar’s lack of firepower in attack and their struggling defence, this prediction holds water. The evidence suggests an uphill battle for Gibraltar and a scoring spree for France, making for an entertaining matchup with plenty of goals.
