Nations League 3rd Round Predictions: France is Favored to Win on Big Derby

This season’s Nations League will continue next weekend, with games in the four leagues held on the 10th and 11th of October. The top game of them will be the France vs Portugal derby but you can find tips for some other games too in our Nations League 3rd round predictions. 

In the new Nations League tournament most big teams have played according to the predictions and lead their groups. The performance of the world cup silver medalist Croatian team has been a bit disappointing after losing both of their games. But they will have a chance to improve on their results in their next game against Sweden. While Germany also have been under performing and having only two points after two games. The most exciting game is promised to be the tie of France and Portugal on Sunday. While some countries will also play in the Euro 2020 playoff before, making it a very busy week in European football.

Spanish and German victory are very likely in the Nations League 3rd round predictions

From Saturday games the two A-league matches are the most awaited ones. Spain will host Switzerland while Germany will visit Ukraine. The Spanish and German teams are both highly favored to win by online sportsbooks in France. Spain currently lead Group A4 after a 1-1 draw against Germany and a 4-0 win over Ukraine. Their opponents are at the bottom of the group since they only got a single point so far. So no wonder the home team has the odds of 1.36 to win the game. In their previous meeting in a friendly in 2018 the final result was a 1-1 draw. But Luis Enrique’s team is in great form, and will be a very difficult task to get even a point from Madrid.

Germany won’t have an easy job on his visit to Kyiv either. They are still favored though to win the game with the odds of 1.55 in the Nations League 3rd round predictions. The team hasn’t been playing their best and couldn’t keep their lead on either of their games against Spain or Switzerland. So they need to get a victory now if they don’t want to risk relegation to League B.

France vs Portugal is the top game on Sunday

The current World and European Champions will collide in Stade de France, in Paris on Sunday evening. Online gambling sites in France hope for a home win which has the odds of 2.05 on bet365. But even a draw or a guest’s victory is a possible result with the odds of 3.10 and 4.00. Both teams have won their games in Group 3 and equal on points. The French team has managed to keep their great form since winning the 2018 World Championship and is a favorite to win next year’s Euro2020 as well. Where they will be in the same group with the Lusitans and the Germans.

So this game will be a very prestigious one and a great opportunity to evaluate each other. Just like the England vs Belgium game, which is the rematch of the 2018 World Cup bronze match. Belgium won that 2-0 so Gareth Southgate’s men will have a chance to take revenge at home. They have the odds of 2.37 to win. But it might not be easy as there have been several disciplinary issues around the team recently. And the team  was also suffering against Denmark in the last game, which ended 0-0. While in Group A1 Italy will visit Poland being the favorites to get the three points. But they can’t take their victory for granted against a team where Robert Lewandowski will surely go for a score again.
