France vs Australia: The 8 best free bets, bonuses and sign-up offers for 2022 World Cup
FRANCE clash with Australia in their Group D World Cup opener at the Al Janoub Stadium.
And SunSport have rounded up the latest best free bets, sign-up specials and exclusive bonuses available from the UK’s top bookmakers.
A day after England’s emphatic 6-2 victory over Iran, it’s France’s turn to make a statement.
The 2018 winners have been plagued by injuries in the build-up with the likes of Paul Pogba, N’Golo Kante, Christopher Nkunku and Karim Benzema all unavailable.
But manager Didier Deschamps will want to prove his squad still possesses more than enough quality to defend their trophy.
They certainly have the firepower required to lift the trophy with Antoine Griezmann, Kylian Mbappe and Ousmane Dembele in attack.
Though they’ve claimed one victory from their last six competitive outings, Les Bleus should command a healthy amount of respect.
These sides met in the group stage four years ago too when Australia gave France a scare.
Deschamps’ side won 2-1 that day courtesy of Antoine Griezmann, but should do with with far more authority against a weaker outfit.
