France VS Senegal
MetLife Stadium (New York/New Jersey, USA)
16 June, 2026
Overview:
France enter the Group Stage clash as clear favorites, with multiple previews expecting them to control the match and win against Senegal in a game that could feature goals at both ends.[1][2][3][4]
Recent H2H results: France won 2-0 in 2022
Prediction:
Based on current form and stats, we expect a close contest with a final score of 3-1 in favor of France.
France are likely to dominate territory and possession, while Senegal may look to stay compact and attack in transition; several previews expect both teams to score, which suggests Senegal can create moments if France push high.[1][2][3][4]
France’s superior quality, stronger betting market support, and tournament consistency weigh heavily toward a France win, but Senegal’s counterattacking threat supports a competitive scoreline rather than a shutout.[1][2][3][4]
