Germany Women v France Women football betting is the big Group A clash of the FIFA Women’s World Cup on July 5th, which will determine the outcome of top spot in the group. With both sides having two wins from two games, this is just a shoot out to see who finishes first. France, who despite coming into the Finals with a great qualification record, were flying under the radar when it came to weighing up chances in picking a winner in Women’s World Cup outright winner betting. But they have certainly made a good case for themselves and are making themselves something of a target. They opened their account with a hard fought 1-0 win against a physical Nigeria side, but then absolutely tore Canada apart in their second group match. France totally dominated their match against the seasoned Canadians, running out 4-0 winners in the end, and not letting Canada even get a shot on target for the match. A brace from Gaetane Thiney for France stole the show and they now set themselves up well for their final group match against tournament favourites Germany. France’s display against Canada really was one of the most impressive of the tournament so far, and on that form, they should give the Germans a good run for their money. France really stroked the ball around well and did look a great threat going forward. Because of that 4-0 thumping of Canada, France are now in driving position to win the group, as they hold a strong goal difference over Germany now and will be happy with a draw when the two sides meet.
As for Germany, well, they really struggled in their second group match. After beating Canada 2-1 in their opening match, the host nation was expected to be more in their groove. However, they really didn’t play to any momentum as they really struggled to break down the stubborn Nigerians. There was another big turn out of support for the home nation, but they could not put their supremacy into action. Nigeria were very physical against the Germany Women, and perhaps it was that which threw them off their game. However, you don’t expect to see Germany Women playing too many bad games and better now than latter in the tournament. They now have to raise their game for their toughest opponents yet, and prove to the world that they can live up to expectations in front of their own crowds. We should see the Germany Women pull out of their shells and match the French. Germany Women are so much better than their performance against Nigeria, and even though they did not play well, they still won. A solitary goal from midfielder Simone Laudehr was enough to keep up Germany’s 100% record, but now it is on the line against France Women. Germany really have not got going in the tournament yet, but they have talent and class throughout their side and they should get better. They are in the next round, and now they actually have to beat France to top the group. So this is the first big test where Germany need to come out and be strong and positive from the start and forget the previous two games. They have immense power up front and they need to just get back and play to their strengths.
Both sides are in the quarter final of the 2011 FIFA Women’s World Cup. Now it is a matter of who will finish top. It is an important battle, because the winner will likely get to avoid playing Japan in the quarter finals. Germany do go into the match still as overwhelming favourites to beat France Women, they will still have that all important home advantage of course. France Women, who are ranked 7th in the word don’t have a great history against Germany Women, so that is something else to take into consideration for your Germany Women v French Women 2011 FIFA World Cup betting odds, and the last time the two sides met, Germany ran out convincing 5-1 winners in 2009. There have been a total of nine matches played between the two nations, and seven of them have been won by Germany and just two by France. The goals count in the head to head between France and Germany women is immense, with Germany having scored 26 goals in those nine matches against the French, with France replying with just four. Although France are playing well at the moment, it is still tough going against Germany Women. They are back to back World Cup winners and will stake a momentous effort to actually beat them.
