France will face Sweden at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey (USA). The winner of this match will go on to face Paraguay in the Round of 16 of the 2026 World Cup.

"Les Bleus" entered the first knockout round as a top contender for the title. Coach Didier Deschamps's team showed convincing form in Group I, winning all three matches against Senegal, Iraq, and Norway. This is the first time since the 1998 World Cup that the French national team has finished the group stage with a perfect record.

The French attack is their biggest strength, having scored 10 goals in the group stage. The duo of Kylian Mbappe and Ousmane Dembele are in excellent form, each having scored 4 goals. Their excellent partnership, along with other quality players like Michael Olise and Desire Doue, gives coach Deschamps many options for attacking the opponent's goal.

Statistics also favor France, as they have advanced through 15 out of 18 knockout matches at the World Cup since 1998.

The South Korean team only managed 3 points (winning 2-1 against the Czech Republic, but losing 0-1 to both Mexico and South Africa), and that wasn't enough for them to qualify as one of the eight best third-placed teams.

On the other side of the battlefield, Sweden advanced as one of the best third-placed teams. Despite being considered significantly weaker than their opponents (Opta's supercomputer estimated France had a 71% chance of winning in 90 minutes, while Sweden only had 11%), the team under coach Graham Potter still possessed players capable of causing an upset.

Under the guidance of a strategist who previously worked in the Premier League, Sweden adopted a relatively disciplined style of play. Despite a major blow to their defense with key central defender Isak Hien absent due to injury, Sweden can still be confident in their attack, which is in good form with 7 goals scored in the group stage.

Sweden's hopes rest on the attacking duo of Viktor Gyokeres and Alexander Isak, along with winger Anthony Elanga.

The nature of a knockout match forces both teams to approach the game with great caution. However, with both teams possessing many star players in their attacking line, fans are expecting to witness an exciting back-and-forth battle.

Predicted lineup:

France: Maignan; Kounde, Saliba, Upamecano, Theo Hernandez; Tchouameni, Rabiot; Dembele, Olise, Doue; Mbappe.
