The Male Olympic football quarterfinals are coming our way. We couldn’t be more eager for the match we are breaking down right now, as it is a duel between the two biggest favorites for the gold medal at the 2024 jogos Olímpicos. Based on what we’ve seen so far from these two, their game on Friday is guaranteed to be a banger.
The French national Olympic soccer team has all won since the start of the 2024 Games, which are taking place on their turf. They won every single game of the group stage without conceding a goal.
Meanwhile, in the first round, Argentina lost to Morocco 2:1 in a bizarre game that was delayed due to fan trouble and VAR problems. But they have been fixing their pace since then. They finished second in the group, the result of which is that they now are facing the winner of another group. Given that Argentina’s defense hasn’t been great, they must be aware.

Por que apostar na França?
Living up to expectations and then some in the group phase, Olympic hosts France emulated Japan as just one of two teams to win all three of their group matches in the men’s football tournament, scoring seven goals and keeping three clean sheets in a row.
A first Olympic men’s quarterfinal since the 1996 Atlanta Games now awaits Les Bleus, who have to go back 40 years for the last time they won a knockout Olympic match. Then, they won their first and only gold medal to date in the male tournament.
Quarterfinal contests have often been a bugbear for the current Olympic hosts, who have lost five of their last six men’s matches at this stage. However, their overall unbeaten run now stands at an eye-catching nine matches.
Por que apostar na Argentina?
Quickly banishing the memories of their excruciating and unsavory defeat to Morocco in their opening match of the tournament, Argentina had no issue sweeping aside Iraq and Ukraine to sneak into second place in Group B behind their African counterparts.
Argentina are now through to the knockout rounds for the first time since their second and most recent gold medal triumph in 2008. Having failed to make it past the group phase in both 2016 and 2021, only one of their previous five quarterfinal showdowns has ended in defeat.
That sole loss came at the hands of Brazil in 1988, but, while the senior France and Argentina sides engaged in an unforgettable battle in Qatar a year and a half ago, Friday’s meeting will be their first showdown in the men’s Olympics football tournament.
Análise Final das Apostas: France vs. Argentina
While France had the luxury of resting some of their top stars in midweek, Argentina’s notable names were not afforded such respite due to their volatile group standing, and fatigue may be evident for the South Americans here.
A titanic battle can be expected regardless, one where Henry’s men ought to lose their perfect defensive record, but the hosts still have our backing to march to the semifinals. We’ll go for 2-1 in favor of the locals.
Go for a victory for France at 2.05. If you bet $100 at such odds, you could get $105 for a total payout of $205.
