France take on England at the Miami Stadium at 22:00 BST on Saturday 18 July in the Third-place play-off — here are our predictions, best bets and predicted line-ups.
Jude Bellingham: England's hero
Jude Bellingham: England's hero

We're predicting Rayan Cherki to score or assist at 6/5. Rayan Cherki registered ten goals and 15 assists in all competitions for Manchester City in the 2025-26 season, and should start in this clash.

We're also predicting France to win at 10/13. France have won six of their last nine meetings against England and could extend that run against a Three Lions side who looked out on their feet in their semi-final loss to Argentina.

We've also compiled two bet builders at odds of 18/1 and 5/1. New customers of LiveScore Bet can get £30 in free bets when they bet £10. See the offer below for more details.

France vs England Bet Builder Player Picks

  • Desire Doue over 1.5 shots @ 4/6 — Desire Doue has averaged 3.31 shots per 90 minutes at this World Cup and is likely to have plenty of cracks at goal in this one.

  • Morgan Rogers over 0.5 shots on target @ 29/20 — Morgan Rogers has been aggressive with his shot choices in his brief appearances at this World Cup and averaged 0.88 shots on target per 90 minutes for Aston Villa in the 2025-26 Premier League season.

  • Adrien Rabiot to be shown a card @ 19/5 — Adrien Rabiot has committed 11 fouls at this tournament and was booked against Spain. He looks like a prime card candidate.

  • Rayan Cherki to register an assist @ 21/10 — Rayan Cherki had 15 assists for Manchester City in the 2025-26 season and while he has found his game time limited at this tournament, he should start for France in this play-off.

  • Elliot Anderson over 1.5 fouls @ 17/20 — Elliot Anderson has committed nine fouls at this World Cup and could be busy against France’s dynamic forward line.

France vs England Bet Builders

Bet Builder 1 — 18/1

  • Over 2.5 goals — Three of England's four knockout games have featured three or more goals within 90 minutes.

  • Rayan Cherki to register an assist — The Manchester City playmaker provided 15 assists in the 2025-26 season.

  • Elliot Anderson over 1.5 fouls — No England player has committed more fouls at this World Cup than Elliot Anderson's nine and he will be kept busy by a talented France frontline.

  • Morgan Rogers over 0.5 shots on target — The Aston Villa midfielder isn't afraid to let fly and got an effort on target in 32 minutes against Norway.

Bet Builder 2 — 5/1

  • France to win — France have a strong record against these opponents, winning six of the last nine head-to-heads, and can get the better of an England team who looked exhausted on Wednesday.

  • Kylian Mbappe anytime goalscorer — The France striker has eight goals at the tournament and has the Golden Boot to think about, so is likely to play.

  • Both teams to score — Both teams have scored in all of England’s knockout games and with the lower stakes in this play-off, it should land again.

  • Desire Doue over 1.5 shots — The PSG forward has averaged 3.31 shots per 90 minutes at this World Cup and is fancied for at least two in this one.
