Ireland V France World Cup Playoff Betting Odds
Wednesday 11 November 2009 at 11:32
Republic Of Ireland v France is arguably the toughest game in the World Cup Playoffs and the betting odds make one side a very appealing bet.
Great Odds Available In Playoff First Leg
France are favourites to win in Dublin and can be backed at 6/4 with SkyBet and VC Bet whilst Ireland are 21/10 to make the most of their home advantage at Bet365. The draw is 11/5 with Stan James and Coral. The most appealing bet from those is definitely Ireland to grab the win at 21/10 with Bet365. France are not the force of old and haven't been for some time. France's away record in qualifying was awful, they only managed 1-0 wins away to Faroe Islands and Lithuania, drew with Serbia and Romania and lost 3-1 against Austria. Ireland, on the other hand, were unbeaten at home during qualifying.
Ireland Set For Narrow Win
It looks as though it could be a low scoring game, Ireland haven't managed to score more than two goals in their entire qualifying campaign whilst France managed just six goals away from home in five matches, many sides would have got that amount against Faroe Islands alone. It is also worth noting France conceded just three goals in their final seven qualifying matches. This means you should be backing under 2.5 goals at 8/15 with Paddy Power and Blue Square as well as a decent bet on Ireland to win 1-0 at 6/1 with VC Bet and Blue Square. That could be one of the best World Cup Tips at this early stage. For more Ireland v France World Cup Playoff betting Odds click on any of the bookie links above.
