France are currently the World Cup vice-champion, so their expectations for the upcoming EURO 2024 are huge. France hasn't lifted the trophy for being the best European team since 2000. Didier Deschamps' team didn't have any problems during qualifications as they finished first in their group with four points more than the second-placed Netherlands. France finished qualifications with a draw against Greece (2-2). That was the only game they didn't win in the group, but we should say that France secured the first position before that game, so they didn't play with their best eleven.
Germany is one of the best teams in history, but they haven't won any major trophies since the World Cup in 2014. This year, Germany will host the EURO, so their ambitions will be the highest. Of course, Germany didn't play in the qualifications, so in 2023, they only had friendly matches in which they had a bad record for their standards (three wins, two draws, and six losses). In the previous game, Germany lost 2-0 on the road against Austria.
France vs Germany pick: France to win
France and Germany had the previous h2h match in a friendly last year when Germany in Dortmund won 2-1. Although Didier Deschamps' team lost that one, they were slightly better, according to the stats. Now, we should expect an even better game from France, so we should feel good about this bet.

Germany team news
Germany head coach Julian Nagelsmann decided to change 11 players from their last friendly matches. Several established players are left out, while veterans Manuel Neuer and Toni Kroos returned to the squad. Nagelsmann opted for form rather than reputation, so Deniz Undav, Maximilian Mittelstaedt, Waldemar Anton, Aleksandar Pavlovic, and some others got a surprising call-up.
