France vs Ukraine Matches Analysis

France Last 5 Matches:

Iceland 2–2 France (World Cup Qualifiers Europe) France 3–0 Azerbaijan (World Cup Qualifiers Europe) France 2–1 Iceland (World Cup Qualifiers Europe) Ukraine 0–2 France (World Cup Qualifiers Europe) Germany 0–2 France (Nations League)

France was very close to completing a five-for-five here. The only thing stopping them was a 2-2 draw to the tiny country of Iceland in their most recent World Cup qualification. They have not played the highest standards of teams, but have still recorded good results.

Ukraine Last 5 Matches:

Ukraine 2–1 Azerbaijan (World Cup Qualifiers Europe) Iceland 3–5 Ukraine (World Cup Qualifiers Europe) Azerbaijan 1–1 Ukraine (World Cup Qualifiers Europe) Ukraine 0–2 France (World Cup Qualifiers Europe) New Zealand 1–2 Ukraine (Friendlies)

Ukraine is very similar to France. They were also very close to going five for five, but a loss against the team they will be facing on the 13th and a poor 1-1 draw against Azerbaijan means that they have three wins from their last five.
