France v Spain - Tuesday - 20:00 BST

[Nalis]

They deserve their own match threads at the semi final stage

[EastAnglianFox]

France at 70% win this.

 

The only hope I had of them being knocked out was by being absolutely shithoused by a filthy South American performance.

 

It’s theirs to lose now you would think even though I’ve bigged England up more than usual

The best two teams in the world this, they’re in a different tier to Argentina and England. Whoever wins this semi it’s their WC to lose.

You've just given them a 30 % chance to lose, which is quite significant.

spain haven't impressed me once this tournament, can't see anything but a french win here

[FoxesWalk]

Real shame Morocco didn’t show up, France still haven’t really been tested. Will be a very interesting game. 
 

Sticking with my gut and going with Spain continuing to be quite boring to watch but strangling them out of it with midfield dominance.

I'd sooner face Spain than France I think for England.

 

These two look like the best two sides in the competition, but France are the pick. The attack is ridiculous.

[AyewJoking]

Spain are boring as ****, gotta be their weakest/least glamorous team for a while.

 

Just about boring enough to grind out a winning tournament though..........

When Spain and France played a year ago in nations league semi finals Spain put 5 past them, both strong XIs though Spain were playing a 2nd choice midfield due to injuries.

They are the only team France will have played in a while who will not be afraid of attacking them. They can beat them, and have recently.

Spain have the midfield most capable of nullifying France's threat going forward, given how good they are at retaining possession.

 

Make this one roughly even.
