CANADA VS FRANCE PREDICTION

This contest stands out as one of the most exciting across the group stage, with both Canada and France capable of gaining a medal at the end of the competition. Whilst the French don’t boast any superstar names, they look one of the best teams across the court, especially after having seen them in warm-up action.

WNBA players such as Kia Nurse and Natalie Achonwa will be critical for Canada, whilst Washington Mystics rookie Aaliyah Edwards could also prove important. But France on home court with the attacking quality they possess are likely to cause chaos for the Canadian defence and it’s well worth backing the hosts to come out on top.
