France and Argentina Have Met Five Times Before
These two footballing heavyweights have faced-off five times in the past and despite France winning the last encounter, 4-3 which came at the 2018 World Cup, Argentina won the four previous clashes.
Prior to that 2018 meeting, Argentina had only conceded one goal against France in the four previous head-to-heads and overall the South American side have won 3 of the 5 clashes ‘to nil – you can back Argentina to win ‘to nil’ @ 17/5 with BetUK. It’s also worth pointing out, Argentina have scored in ALL their games against France.
Argentina and France Last Played in a 4-3 Thriller at the 2018 World Cup
As mentioned, the last time these football ‘big-guns’ played was in a ‘last 16’ match at the 2018 World Cup and that ended in a 4-3 classic, with France coming out on top. All neutrals will be hoping for more of the same this Sunday.
Kylian Mbappe was on target twice in that game too, while Antoine Griezmann also scored from the penalty spot and for Argentina Angel Di Maria netted on of their three goals. You can back Mbappe to score a brace again (2 goals) @ 21/2 with BetUK.
FIFA World Rankings Suggest a Tight Game
With only one place between Argentina (3) and France (4) in the FIFA Rankings, then a close game looks on the cards, while with these rankings often coming under criticism then the football powers will be more than happy with this final seeing as they’ve two top-ranked nations in the last two.
France Have NEVER Kept a Clean Sheet Against Argentina
France and Argentina have meet five times before, but as well as the South American’s holding a 4-1 overall lead, the other stat that will have the French fans worried is that they are yet to keep a clean sheet against Argentina.
If you fancy this stat to continue, then you can back Argentina Over 0.5 Goals @ 21/50 with BetUK.

Argentina Have Lost Only One Of Their Last 42 Games
As we all know, Argentina suffered that shock opening group game defeat to Saudi Arabia, which will go down in the World Cup history books, but they’ve bounced back since to reach the final – beating Mexico, Poland, Australia, Netherland (pens) and Croatia to reach the World Cup Final.
With this return to form, Argentina sill bring in an impressive record to this final tournament match that has seen them lose just one of their last 42 games.
In contrast, France has only won 6 of their last 12 matches, so overall the South American’s are heading into the Final with the clear better record.
Recent Match Results For Both Sides Suggest Goals
We saw seven goals the last two times these sides met and even though it will be a lot to ask for to see a repeat of that, the good news for the impartial fans is that the recent match stats (for both sides) to lean towards plenty of goal mouth action.
8 of Argentina’s last 11 games produced Over 2.5 Goals, while 4 of France’s last 6 also had 3+ goals scored. Heading over to BetUK again and Over 2.5 Goals (90 mins) is on offer @ 7/5.
M&M’s All Round as Messi and Mbappe The Focus (but don’t forget Giroud)
M could be the magic letter in the final too as two of the best players around at the moment – Lionel Messi and Kylian Mbappe – will be the big focus in the scoring markets.
With an added sub-plot of being PSG teammates, plus the fact they are both on 5 World Cup 2022 goals so also fighting it out for the Golden Boot, then Sunday’s Final has a lot else riding on it.
Messi and Mbappe are both on offer @ 19/20 for the Golden Boot, so the bookies can’t split them, while it’s a similar story in the scoring markets. Messi is 15/4 to score the 1st goal of the game, or 8/5 anytime, with Mbappe 19/4 to grab the opener or 2/1 anytime.
But, let’s not forget Olivier Giroud as France’s striker has also had a top World Cup with four goals and he’s sure to be popular in the scoring markets too @ 13/2 (1st) or 29/10 (anytime). Or, if you fancy the former Chelsea man to get two (and Messi and Mbappe to not score), then Giroud is @ 13/1 with BetUK for the Golden Boot too!
France Looking To Become The First Back-to-Back World Cup Winners Since Brazil
Only two previous nations have won the World Cup back-to-back – the first being Italy back in 1934 and 1938, while the other was Brazil in 1958 and 1962.
Therefore, France, who are the current World Cup holders, will be hoping to become the third ‘back-to-back’ winners of the tournament and end a 60-year spell. Ironically, Argentina are the only other team since Brazil that have come close – winning in 1986 and then losing in the final four years later in 1990 to Germany.

France and Argentina Both Two-Time World Cup Winners
The other thing that France and Argentina have in common is two World Cup wins each, but after this Sunday the shirt manufacturers of one of the sides will have to needle and thread in another gold star!
France won the World Cup in 1998 and, of course last time in 2018, while Argentina’s wins came in 1978 and 1986. Whichever team it is that will have three World Cup wins after the weekend, they will still be behind Italy (4 wins), Germany (4 wins) and Brazil (5 wins).
