Majority Picking France and England for final

[Franctoshi]

This prediction actually caught my eye, seeing the number of people already voting for France and England to go through the final stage just a few minutes after the poll was dropped. To me, it's a bit difficult to pick one out of these 4 teams, but I think that France actually stands out; England did very well in their last game.

But the last time Argentina met with England in the World Cup competition was in 2002, a group stage match, and England won that game 1-0. In 1998 both teams played a 2-2 draw; Argentina won in a penalty shootout, whereas in 1986 Argentina won against England in full time, where Diego Maradona scored the goal he tagged “The Hand of God”
How do you see this poll, and where do you take sides?

This prediction actually caught my eye, seeing the number of people already voting for France and England to go through the final stage just a few minutes after the poll was dropped.

With the whole talk about FIFA being biased towards Argentina and favouring them and turning a blind eye towards some obvious things, I have seen several videos pop up on my page, and they have been really dragging on with this matter, and I think that is one of the reasons why a lot of people are going to vote for England to emerge in the finals.

The hate for Argentina is massive currently. I personally would have loved to see them play against France. I think that would be a very interesting match to watch. So my pick would have been France for the first poll and Argentina for the second poll.

If you pay close attention to how each of the four teams has performed from the start of this World Cup match until now, you will also choose France and England to be the two teams that advance to the final. Additionally, even when you analyze the four teams chances based on past performance. But there's always a possibility of an unforeseen surprise.

The last h2h between Argen vs England is already more than two decades. It means nothing to this game. Even Messi was starting his career in La Liga at 2004. So i see no importance of those old fixtures.

But anyway England hold the votes to final because so many Argentina haters. People are thinking Argentina always given advantages by FIFA. So most of them hope it's England who attend to the final.

Nevertheless it sounds Argetina will beat England, then go to the final.

It depends on who is in the community which is usually driven by the number of likes against some players within the team they will support to win, but to be honest I have more doubts in the Spain and France matches than Argentina against England, which is actually my suspicion falls on Argentina going into the final, if FIFA's support is true for Argentina, but I hope Harry Kane can stop Messi in this semi-final to close it all out and we won't argue anymore about Argentina or Messi.

I have a feeling that France would win the world cup but I'm not really sure about that because there other teams that are contending for the world cup as well. From the performance of Argentina in their last match it Is obvious that they are getting exhausted, they barely won the match but this isn't the same thing that I would say About France last match because they did quite well. They have more chances of doing better than England but at the end of the day anything can happen, the world cup is very difficult to predict.

It's odd to begin to compare their previous meetings, as far back as 1986? C'mon, Maradona is dead and we don't even have any single player in that team today, so their previous meetings don't matter. Even if it did, the outcome might still differ, we cannot tell. Like I have said already in other threads with similar discussion, I'd like to see France lift the trophy, but if FIFA wants to operate with their internal plan, that's left for them to decide.

When it comes to the forthcoming match between France vs Spain, for me I think I follow what the majority is selecting in respect that France will win Spain in tomorrows match. Because despite the fact that Spain have always have an upper edge over France in their previous matches, when it comes to this year's game, I believe Mbappe and his boys will be sending Lamine Jamal home just the same way he send Ronaldo home too.

And also when it comes to the next match between England vs Argentina, I believe England will win that game if only the referee allows a fair game. But if he doesn't, then it's obvious Lionel Messi and his boys will win
 But I think the final match will be between France vs England.

This is a very active WhatsApp channel for the FIFA world cup news and updates that has about 17.1M number of followers in this football community, so this number has something to say regarding supporters view, though that's not going to actually determine what happens in the end.
Looking forward to seeing how things goes.

You can't neglect history no matter how long it's, wether it's during Maradona era or now history lives.

It would be a very interesting and crazy plot-twist in the case Spain ended up going to the finals against Argentina or England.

I have talked to some people who Spain and they have got their expectations quite high with how much their team has managed to do during this world cup.

If I recall correctly, the last time Spain won and world cup was back then in 2010, almost two decades ago. It would be quite stunning if they managed to pull it off this year and take the throohy back to Europe.

That would be so epic for Spain, and honestly I hope that it happens but I can see England and Argentina in the final match and I also think that would make one of the best endings for this cup. Its surely been one heck of a ride through for this 2026 world cup and I for one have been so glad to be watching and rooting some of these teams on. I was really pulling for Norway though! Man how crazy would that have been if they advanced. One heck of a game!

[fullfitlarry]

I thought that Argentina is the slight favorite against England? But I might be wrong, in any case if there is bias towards Argentina because of whatever reasons they maybe they could win their match against England.

And then France the favorite winning the World Cup. That will be the perfect ending for this version of World Cup.

But who knows, maybe there could be some underdogs that can derail what almost everyone is seeing in the finals.

[disbil]

Personally every fans vote for their favorite national team and not surely its happening the final match France vs England, seeing both team performance think so ideal final France vs England because both team playing well since the group round until knock out phase. However Argentina have luckiness every match since face many mediocre team from round of 32 until quarter final round and the referee always behind them how the last match when Switzerland have to played with ten players.

Actually expect the final match France vs England but don't forget FIFA influence helping Argentina get qualifying to final match, in my prediction England get difficulty pressure when facing Argentina in the semifinal if the referee fair I believe have chance England will qualify to final round.

[Nrcewker]

No doubt England is looking strong in this World Cup, but my heart still says Argentina will win this match. Argentina has experience, and they are known for performing well in high pressure matches.

I’m sure many people voted in favour of England because of their last encounter, which happened almost two decades ago. But if we look at the current form of both teams, they are on an equal level. What could turn the tide is the experience and confidence Argentina brings to pressure situations.

As for the other match, France definitely has a higher chance of winning.

[jcojci]

No doubt about that but I still pick Argentina to win against England. But that is not a problem if England win and I only lose my bet hehehe
I am ready with that and just hopes that Argentina will win and will go to final meets France. That poll is good and you could see what they pick but you should not just follow them without research so you know that is a right pick or not.

Spain has a long history when it comes to matches against France in very important competitions. In Euro games, Spain came out on top in the last encounter, winning 2-1, and that was recently, around 2024. However, when it comes to World Cup matches, France has fared better than Spain. In the 2006 World Cup, France beat Spain 3-1. But we're talking about a game from 20 years ago. Currently, despite France having an extremely strong squad and frequently reaching great heights in the World Cup, playing against Spain is their worst nightmare. Spain has a good defense and is well-organized. Anything can happen in that game. As for the Argentina vs. England game, I see England as the favorite.

That's true, the both teams are pretty doing nice to be honest, and ever from the beginning of the league they have practically been on top of their game so am not surprise if history entually repeat itself.  But again, the other teams which are Argentina and Spain are no small team either that will just gonna fold their hands and watch the other two teams beat them as easy as we think, football can be very unpredictable, so the best we can do is just to wait and see how it goes because all what we can do at this point is mere speculations, we shouldn't rush into conclusion because is not yet over.

Based on the recent odds it was England who is the slight favorite going into this match against Argentina. To be honest i've got no clue on why Argentina is the underdog but personally i like England to advance to the Finals after they defeated my favorite team Norway.

My first bet in this version of the world cup was a win and i'm planning to bet for England, hope that i'll still be lucky this time around.

[Ruttoshi]

I also prefer France and England to be in the finals because I want a different experience from the 2022 world cup finals. However, if you also consider how Argentina struggles to qualify to the next round, it's possible that their strength might not match that of the English men.

Both Argentina and England has what it takes to win each other and I think the semifinals will determine if Argentina will be in the finals or not. Two big matches in the semifinals will be like the finals.

[hyudien]

Choosing which team will be the champion in this year's world cup is really quite difficult, because the 4 remaining teams are currently the favorites to win, even before this competition started these 4 teams have been talked about a lot, but if you look at their journey from the beginning to the semi-finals, then saying Francis is the team that is closer to winning it is something that many people will agree, they have performed amazingly, their performance is consistent. Maybe Francis will win the title, and I want them to meet England in the final later.
