Match Preview

France will visit NSK Olimpijs'kyj, the headquarters of Ukraine in the 5th match of the 2022 World Cup Qualification in the European Zone Group D, Sunday (05/09/2021) at 12:15 midnight Indian time.

France is in bad shape ahead of this match. In the previous match, France failed to get full points after being held to a 1-1 draw by Bosnia-Herzegovina.

These results make France remain at the top of the Group D standings with a collection of 8 points from 4 matches that have been undertaken (W2 D2 L0). These results also left France without a win even in their last 4 matches (W0 D3 L1).

Meanwhile, Ukraine in the previous match also failed to get full points after a 2-2 draw against Kazakhstan.

Thanks to these results, Ukraine is now in second place in Group D standings with 4 points from 4 matches played (W0 D4 L0).

At the previous meeting in the first match of the 2022 World Cup Qualifiers, France and Ukraine were only able to draw 1-1. France opened the scoring first through Antoine Griezmann's goal in the 19th minute. However, Ukraine was able to equalize through Sergey Sydorchuk's goal in the 57th minute.

In terms of quality, France, which is inhabited by star players, will clearly be more favored over Ukraine in this match.

However, France of course still has to be vigilant considering that Ukraine is quite strong when playing at its own headquarters. Moreover, France is also in a bad condition ahead of this match.
