Thierry Henry’s France open their 2024 Summer Olympics campaign in Group A on Wednesday when they come up against a talented Team USA. The French have won one gold medal in the sport, and that success dates back to 1984. However, their overall record has been slightly disappointing.
That was evident in the 2020 Olympics after they failed to make it out of the group stage after losing two of their three matches. However, France are taking the competition very seriously this summer, with stars such as Michael Olise, Alexandre Lacazette, and Jean-Philippe Mateta all included in a deep squad.
The USA may rank among the most successful Olympic nations in history, but they are yet to win an Olympic medal in football. Unsurprisingly, they will be outsiders in the betting for those making a 2024 Summer Olympics prediction this week after failing to qualify for each of the last three tournaments.
However, they enjoyed a solid qualifying campaign to achieve a return to the Olympics this year after winning six of their seven matches. Their overall form is relatively strong after winning two of their last four matches. Additionally, they also played out a 2-2 draw with France in a friendly in late March.
Bet hereBoth of these nations are expected to reach the next round of Paris 2024 this summer, but it is hard to oppose the host nation when making a France vs USA prediction.
Henry has a talented squad to work with this summer, and proven quality in the final third of the field could be crucial in the latter stages. For that reason, we expect France to get off to a winning start in Group A on Wednesday evening.
Alexandre Lacazette is one of Henry’s overage players selected this summer, and he is in excellent recent form heading into the tournament in France.
The 33-year-old was prolific for Lyon last season, netting 22 goals in 35 matches across all competitions. He could be the standout France vs USA prediction on Wednesday when it comes to a potential scorer.
