France U23 has made an amazing 14 appearances at the Olympic Games. However, they have won only two medals so far: gold in 1984 and silver in 1900. This year, France is the host, and they will not be satisfied with less than gold. Thierry Henry's team is impressive at the tournament so far. In the group phase, they won all three games with a 7:0 goal difference, while in the quarterfinal, France U23 won 1-0 against Argentina U23. French Jean-Philippe Mateta scored already in the fifth minute, so France U23 decided to defend and try to punish opponents on the counterattacks. Neither of the teams didn't score until the end, so France U23 secured their place in the semifinal.
Egypt U23's appearance in Paris 2024 is their 13th at the Olympic Games. Reaching the semifinal this year is their best performance in history. Egypt U23 started the tournament with a draw against Dominican Republic U23, but after that came wins against Uzbekistan U23, Spain U23, and after penalties in the quarterfinal against Paraguay U23. Egypt U23 had their usual problems of lacking attacking firepower, but defense in all games was on a high level.
France U23 vs Egypt U23 pick: France U23 to win and cover AH -1,5 spread
France U23 have their eye on the gold medal at this tournament. They seem so strong, so we should expect Thierry Henry's team to dominate against Egypt U23 too.
