France will be aiming to return to winning ways when they take on Belgium at Stade de France, following a 1-1 draw with Italy in their third Group 1 game. Les Bleus dominated proceedings but were punished by a cheap passing error, and they will now be eager to retain top spot. Kylian Mbappe remains in the recovery room, meaning Ousmane Dembele should continue leading the line, while Liverpool ace Bradley Barcola could sneak into the starting XI. Maxence Lacroix is expected to replace the suspended Dayot Upamecano. France have been particularly impressive in front of goal lately, averaging 2.17 goals across their last six home matches.
The Red Devils, meanwhile, recorded a convincing 3-0 victory over Turkey, with Kevin De Bruyne scoring a brace. However, the visitors face a tougher task here without both De Bruyne and Youri Tielemans, who are suspended. Diego Moreira returns from suspension and should provide an additional attacking option, but Belgium’s defensive numbers away from home are less convincing, with the Red Devils conceding an average of 1.00 goal per game on the road.
France’s superior H2H record (86% wins) and home advantage make France to Win our main betting tip, alongside BTTS (43% H2H) and France Over 1.5 goals (great attacking potential).
This Nations League match will be played on Monday 5 October 2026 at 19:45.
