Reigning champions France will lock horns against Poland at the Al Thumama Stadium in the round of 16 of the 2022 FIFA World Cup on Sunday.

France will go into this gam on the back of a series of impressive performances which has seen them remain as one of the favourites to go all the way in Qatar and claim the world cup. These two countries have played one another 16 times in total and with 8 wins 5 draws and just 3 defeats, it's France that have a healthy lead in the pair's head-to-head record. France have kept clean sheets in each of their last three meetings with Poland and the Polish failed to score in two of their three group games at the World Cup. This impressive record against their opponents will be more than a morale boost to them as they will be looking to extend their winning streak in this fixture. On the attack, France has a plethora of options which have all turned out to be fruitful. In their last 5 games, france has found the back of the net a total of 8 times while only conceding 5 in that same time period. On top of their good performances in group stages, the defending champions also have a fully fit squad ahead of the start of the knockout stages and we expect this to be telling in this game.

Poland on the other hand Poland suffered a 2-0 defeat against Argentina in their final group-stage game on Thursday. They only managed to secure their place in the knockout stage by a thin margin, thanks to their better goal difference against Mexico. Poland are in the knockout round for the first time since 1986 even though they have not looked their best. They will come into this game following a series of inconsistent performances where their defensive problems have been exposed. In addition to the defensive problems that they face, Poland also have an attacking problem as they have struggled to find the back of the net. In their last 5 games, they have only managed to score 4 goals, what a very poor return.

Looking at the records have shown us that France have the advantage here. They certainly do have the squad depth and talents in their ranks to make a difference and find the back of the net in this game. France are in excellent form and we are backing them to win this fixture by 2 goals to take all three points by the end of the game.

卫冕冠军法国队将在周日的2022年世界杯16强比赛中对阵波兰队。

法国队将凭借一系列令人印象深刻的表现进入这场盛会，他们仍然是在卡塔尔一路走下去并夺取世界杯冠军的热门球队之一。两国共交手16次，8胜5平3负，法国队在两国交手记录中遥遥领先。法国队最近三次与波兰队交手都没有失球，波兰队在世界杯小组赛的三场比赛中有两场没有进球。这一令人印象深刻的记录将不仅仅是鼓舞他们的士气，因为他们将寻求在这场比赛中延续他们的连胜。在进攻方面，法国有大量的选择，这些选择都是卓有成效的。在过去的5场比赛中，法国队一共8次破门，而在同一时期只丢了5次球。除了小组赛的出色表现外，卫冕冠军在淘汰赛开始前也拥有了完整的阵容，我们希望在这场比赛中可以看出这一点。

另一方面，波兰在周四的小组赛最后一场比赛中0 - 2负于阿根廷。凭借与墨西哥的净胜球优势，他们仅以微弱优势锁定淘汰赛席位。波兰队自1986年以来首次进入淘汰赛，尽管他们看起来并不是最佳状态。他们将在一系列不稳定的表现之后进入这场比赛，他们的防守问题已经暴露出来。除了他们面临的防守问题，波兰队也有一个进攻问题，因为他们很难找到球门的背面。在过去的5场比赛中，他们只进了4球，这是多么糟糕的回报啊。

从记录来看，法国在这方面有优势。他们当然有足够的阵容深度和天赋，可以在这场比赛中有所作为，找到进球机会。法国队状态非常好，我们支持他们以2球的优势赢得这场比赛，在比赛结束前拿到全部三分。
