France and Iraq face in a crucial Group I encounter on matchday 2 in which the reigning European Giants would be facing the Asian giants.

The two sides enter the contest with contrasting figures, on one side we have France who won their first match against Senegal with Mbappe scoring a banger outside the box and on the other hand the Iraqis had to face a terrible loss against the Vikings 4-1.

France enter the match as the overwhelming favourites owing to their recent performances and attacking quality which they perceive, on the other hand, Iraq has an advantage of putting up one of the tournament's biggest upsets if they manage to win against the French.

A blues win would mean a permanent spot in the round of 32 and if Iraq wins or manage to draw the game, there will still be hopes for them to go further in this toournament.

France Vs Iraq, FIFA World Cup 2026: Match Prediction

France enter the contest as favourites with a squad packed with world-class talent and greater tournament experience. Les Bleus possess match-winners across the pitch and their attacking depth could prove decisive against Senegal's well-organised defense.

However, Iraq should not be underestimated based on their recent upsets, they'll most likely be adapting low compact defense lineup with long ball passing to prevent France from taking an early lead in the game.

Thus, predictive models suggest a comfortable win for the French side.

Prediction: France 2-0 Iraq
