Argentina vs France Prediction, Odds, and Pick: Breaking Down a ... (Covers.com)

With Lionel Messi on the precipice of immortality, Argentina will be going all-out in the World Cup final against a France side potentially facing some key ...

The Saudis showed what can happen on the break, and we all know what Mbappe can do in the open field. All that said, both nations have seen four of their six matches, respectively, in this tournament end with at least three goals, and they’ve each been individually held to fewer than two goals just once each. Hernandez is also dealing with a bit of a knee issue, and his brother Lucas is already out for the tournament. In addition, France have reached the final despite having a lower xG than their opponents in both the Round of 16 and the quarterfinals. Either one causes issues for France, and gives Argentina a terrific advantage in attack. Martinez and Lloris have been outstanding in this tournament, each making critical saves that won matches for their sides. France has also won nine of their last 10 matches over the past two World Cups. For France, they’re hoping to be the first nation to lift the trophy in consecutive tournaments for the first time in decades. Tactically, Messi is in fine form, and he’s going to be perfectly set up to exploit the weakness that France’s last three opponents have attacked: the space behind Mbappe. Whether it’s Nahuel Molina or Gonzalo Montiel starting for Argentina at right back, neither will be on par with what England and Morocco threw at Mbappe to somewhat stifle his attacks. But when it’s all over, Messi will raise the trophy and take his place alongside Diego Maradona as a national hero and one of the greatest players of all time. Who will have what it takes to reach the summit and lift the trophy?

Qatar 2022: Argentina vs. France: Messi, Mbappe, and passing of ... (Premium Times)

This is Messi's last stand to win the elusive World Cup but the final in Lusail could become the crowning of a new king.

Some will say he is already the GOAT; if he lifts the World Cup on Sunday, many more will bow and become believers. They both play for the Qatar-funded PSG and have each scored five goals in Doha, though Messi has four from the penalty spot plus three incredible assists. From what we have seen in Qatar, Messi will win the Ballon d’Or again in 2023. Argentina came close in 1990, when Maradona again displayed his brilliance and led them to the championship game, where they fell to Germany 1-0 on a contentious penalty kick. Will it be the crowning achievement of Lionel Messi’s extraordinary football career, or will it be a torch-passing ceremony to the quicksilver Kylian Mbappe? Argentina’s first win also came on home soil in Buenos Aires in 1978, before Diego “the Hand of God” Maradona achieved immortality with a second triumph in Mexico in 1986.

Argentina vs. France: Who will win the 2022 World Cup final? (Sports Mole)

Ahead of the 2022 World Cup final between Argentina and France, the Sports Mole team discuss who they believe will end up lifting the trophy in Qatar.

Firstly, we are being treated to a brilliant final between two very strong teams, lead by two stars jostling to be called the best player in the world. Both sides have quality and experience but for me France has more depth and their front players pose bigger threats with the speed, dribbling and touches of Mbappe, perhaps the best playmaker at the tournament in Antoine Griezmann and the power of Olivier Giroud. There is no reason for me to believe that will change on Sunday. I think Argentina will need more than Messi to beat Les Bleus this weekend. There are arguments to be made for both France and Argentina to capture Sunday's World Cup final with storylines and potential plot twists abound heading into the big game. Who knows, but the best bet is a cagey 90 minutes with moments of brilliance mixed in with tenacious tackling from both sides. Both teams will be happy to play like that. On paper, this is a 50-50 match, and nothing I say is going to lead anyone into thinking any different. I would not be surprised to see Argentina win on Sunday, and it might well be Messi's moment. Neither side is an underdog, but there is also not a clear favourite, which adds to the intrigue.

Argentina vs. France start time, live stream: How to watch 2022 ... (CBSSports.com)

Argentina and France meet on Sunday for the FIFA 2022 World Cup final with Lionel Messi facing off against Paris Saint-Germain teammate Kylian Mbappe.

We are trying to make the best of the situation we are in, quite simply. This one is going to be tight and almost too close to call. Despite the overriding narrative suggesting that Messi's success is meant to be, the pragmatic French approach could steal his thunder and instead leave Mbappe celebrating. The virus, we are never prepared for this kind of thing. Kylian Mbappe and Olivier Giroud should continue in attack aided by the in-form Antoine Griezmann and Saturday will be crucial in determining eligibility so Deschamps will be hoping that no new cases surface so close to the game. "From the moment we have the support of our supporters, we know that the country is behind us," he added. Be ready to surpass ourselves, to make the effort despite the circumstances with the virus, despite the fatigue. "They play very well in offensive transitions, taking advantage of the mistakes of the opponent. Kingsley Coman, Raphael Varane, and Ibrahima Konate have all suffered the sickness since the win over the Atlas Lions and although Rabiot and Upamecano should now be fine, Varane and Konate would be problematic as it would require a new central defensive pairing. There will be a lot of expectation in relation to this final on the Argentinian side. Argentina: Marco Acuna and Gonzalo Montiel no longer have suspension worries hanging over them although Nahuel Molina is likely to start ahead of Montiel on the right while Acuna might replace Nicolas Tagliafico on the left. "But to be honest, I am focused on the present.

The GOAT looks for the one title he's never won against the champs and a couple of former Barcelona teammates.

Mbappé can cement himself as perhaps the world’s best player if he shines in the Final, and Messi will erase every single doubt about his status as the greatest footballer of all time if he can finally win a World Cup. This is also a rematch of the 2018 Round of 16 in Russia in which Les Bleus destroyed the Albiceleste on their way to the championship, and Argentina have not been shy about looking for revenge for that heavy defeat four years ago. This is without a doubt of the most anticipated Finals in World Cup history for many reasons.

Argentina vs France: Saudi Arabia beat Argentina 1-2 in their first match of 2022 World Cup. And many analysts predicted their early exit.

However, it will be extremely difficult for their backline to thwart Kylian Mbappe and company in the final. Similar to Argentina, Les Bleus scored at least two goals in all but one of their games during the competition. Even though Didier Deschamps and his team had a lot of injuries, many experts thought France would be one of the top teams in Qatar. Instead, they gave everything they had on the football field to start a surprising five-game winning streak and secure a spot in the important final against France. While the others have appeared on occasion, Messi has led them in every game.
