France traditionally relies on total dominance and high intensity. The team operates with balanced tactical structures, emphasizing rapid wing attacks and strong control of the midfield. In recent matches, Les Bleus have been in excellent attacking form. Alongside their success against Senegal, the Europeans recorded friendly victories over Northern Ireland (3-1), Colombia (3-1), and Brazil (2-1). Their only setback came in a 1-2 defeat to Ivory Coast.

Iraq prefers a more defensive approach, sitting deep and relying on quick counterattacks. However, the team’s defensive line has shown vulnerabilities in recent matches. In their latest friendlies, the Asian side lost to Venezuela 0-2, drew 1-1 with Spain, and recorded wins over Andorra (1-0) and Bolivia (2-1). Against France’s attacking power, Iraq will need exceptional discipline and organization across the pitch to maintain any hopes of progressing.
