🇫🇷 France to Win Both Halves
France come into this quarter-final riding a wave of form, having won all three of their group games against high-calibre opposition. Laurent Bonadei’s side dispatched England 2-1, brushed aside Wales with a 4-1 victory, and then came from behind to thrash the Netherlands 5-2 in their final group outing. That latter result is especially telling: Les Bleues showed not only resilience to recover from a losing position but also ruthless edge to rack up four second-half goals.
Crucially, France have scored in both halves in each of their last three matches and are averaging over three goals per game in the competition so far. The attacking trio of Katoto, Cascarino, and Baltimore have been relentless, combining pace, power and movement to dismantle defences. With midfield general Grace Geyoro pushing for a return to the XI, France’s dominance in transitions and control of tempo is only likely to improve.
By contrast, Germany arrive off the back of a heavy 4-1 loss to Sweden, where they collapsed completely after taking an early lead. With their backline weakened by the absence of Carlotta Wamser and Giulia Gwinn, and changes expected at full-back, they look vulnerable against one of Europe’s most fluent forward lines.
If France start fast and assert their pattern early, this tip of France winning both halves has every chance of landing.

🎯 France to Have the Most Corners in Each Half
One of the overlooked strengths of France at this tournament has been their sustained attacking pressure. Bonadei’s tactical setup encourages width, with Cascarino and Karchaoui driving down the flanks at every opportunity. In fact, all three group matches saw France earn the corner count edge comfortably, often forcing opponents to sit deep and clear repeatedly.
France’s front line thrives on isolating full-backs and creating overloads. In doing so, they naturally earn numerous corners across both halves. Against the Netherlands, they recorded significantly more corners in each half, reflecting their hold on territory and control of possession.
Germany, meanwhile, have looked sluggish when pushed wide. Against Sweden, they were pinned back for long spells and offered little in terms of offensive set-piece threat. With a likely defensive setup again in place — especially with untested full-backs stepping in — it’s hard to see them matching France in this metric.
This selection focuses not just on dominance, but consistency across both periods. France’s style almost guarantees repeated final-third entries, and with sharp movement from Katoto in the middle, they often force desperate defending — and corners.

35/1 - odds when tipped | |
Reasoning This three-leg Bet Builder backs France’s dominance in both attack and structure. Les Bleues are expected to control the match across both halves, generate the most pressure through corners, and draw fouls from a reshuffled German defence likely to struggle with pace and movement. All indicators point toward a lopsided contest. |
🟨 Germany to Receive the Most Cards
Germany’s discipline is becoming a concern. Their most recent match saw them receive a straight red card (Wamser) for a deliberate handball on the line, a moment that also exposed a degree of panic in their ranks. It’s also worth noting that they picked up bookings in both previous group matches, with players caught out by quick transitions or physical duels.
Now, facing a France side that moves the ball at pace and attacks with width, Germany’s defenders and midfielders will be under constant pressure. Forced fouls and tactical obstructions seem inevitable, especially given the unfamiliarity in the backline due to Gwinn’s injury and Wamser’s suspension.
France, in contrast, have largely kept their discipline, focusing on possession and movement rather than physical disruption. With the French expected to dominate both territory and possession, the onus will be on Germany to break up play — a scenario which often leads to cautions.
This bet taps into match context and structural mismatches — Germany’s reshuffled defence against a fluid French attack is likely to lead to more cards for the underdogs.
