France are priced at 2.62, while the draw is 3.05.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Italy vs France Betting Tips<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Nicolo Barella to score anytime @ 7.70<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Inter Milan ace Barella was deployed in a more advanced role against Belgium, operating just behind striker Mateo Retegui. With his undeniable quality, we can see the midfield maestro getting himself on the scoresheet on his home ground.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Under 2.5 goals @ 1.73<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This is a game in which one goal may decide the destination of the points. Defences could be on top, so look for the value in a low-scoring thriller.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Both teams to score &#8211; No @ 2.01<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With that in mind, it might be worth wagering on both teams not to ripple the back of the net, especially as just one goal was scored in both teams\u2019 previous matches combined.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>When you choose NetBet Sport, you can enjoy a whole range of top-quality sports and markets.
