Now, Eimer has broken down Netherlands vs. France from every angle and identified his picks and Euro 2024 predictions. You can head to SportsLine now to see Eimer's picks. Here are the betting lines and trends for France vs. Netherlands:
Les Bleus have a world-class playmaker in Antoine Griezmann. The 33-year-old, who plays for Atletico Madrid, was one of the best players in La Liga this past season with 16 goals and six assists. He also scored six times in 10 appearances in this season's Champions League. For the French, Griezmann has scored 44 goals since his debut 10 years ago.
In addition, France have the experience of playing well in the most important tournaments. Les Bleus have made the final in three of the past four major tournaments. By contrast, the Netherlands' best result over that time was a
quarterfinal appearance in the 2022 World Cup. See which team to pick here.
The Oranje will face a French side that may be without arguably the best player in the world, Kylian Mbappe. The speedy and prolific winger suffered a broken nose in France's 1-0 victory over Austria, and his availability for Friday's match is in doubt. If he is unable to play, it would be a significant loss for Les Bleus. He has won six straight scoring titles in Ligue 1 and has scored 47 career goals for the French.
The Oranje have a plethora of world-class attackers. Memphis Depay, who has scored 45 goals in his international career, remains a quality threat despite battling injuries. Xavi Simons is a rising 21-year-old star who is coming off his best season. Cody Gakpo, Donyell Malen, Jeremie Frimpong, and Wout Weghorst also have the ability to give defenses headaches, and both Gakpo and Weghorst scored in the 2-1 win over Poland.

Eimer has broken down France vs. Netherlands from every possible angle. He is leaning Under 2.5 goals, and he has three other best bets, all of which would pay plus-money, and a full breakdown of this match. He's sharing his Euro 2024 picks and analysis only at SportsLine.
