Live descriptive stats
Predicted = the pre-match model's expected goals; actual = xG created so far. A calibration read, not a forecast.
Descriptive only — the pre-match probability tile above does not change during the match.
Analysis
How it plays out
Both sides run a balanced system, so this becomes a test of who executes the same ideas better on the day.
What decides it
Marcus Thuram's 10.0% scoring probability is the highest in this fixture. Containing that output is Iraq's primary defensive task.
Off the pitch
Didier Deschamps (14 years in charge of France) vs Graham Arnold (1 years). That tenure gap shows up in squad familiarity and set-piece coordination.
The angle
The model gives Iraq just 7.3% to win. Every World Cup produces group-stage upsets; the question is whether this fixture is one of them.
Latest news & match context

France and Iraq both come in at close to full strength, so the forecast rests on baseline team strength rather than late team-news swings.
