Comment les deux équipes abordent-elles ce match ?
France U17 arrive with momentum, having shown clinical edge in attack during their qualifiers and possessing one of the strongest defensive records in the competition. Their technical quality and tactical flexibility make them firm favourites, and they’ll be keen to assert dominance from the first whistle.
Albania U17, meanwhile, made history by reaching the finals of this tournament for the first time, showcasing resilience and hard work throughout the qualifying rounds. Although they’ve been tested against powerhouses like Germany recently, they’ll carry confidence from their spirited performances and look to frustrate France with disciplined defending and quick transitions.
Nos prévisions
France U17 start as clear favourites, and we expect them to control possession and create numerous chances. Their fluid midfield and sharp wingers should cause problems for Albania’s backline, especially if they press high and force turnovers.
That said, Albania U17 have shown they can be dangerous on the counter-attack. A bet on a France win combined with both teams to score could deliver solid value, as we anticipate at least one goal from the visitors if France ease off in the final stages.
