Odds, picks & predictions
France: -6000
Draw: +2000
Jamaica: +4000
Moneyline pick: France -6000
Khadija Shaw is a name to watch for Jamaica, and taking her to score a goal (+400) does offer some value. However, there just isn’t much around her yet in this Jamaican side. France, on the other hand, is an experienced outfit looking to get past the quarterfinal round after two consecutive exits in that stage at the World Cup.
France did lose a friendly to Australia ahead of the tournament, but had three straight victories prior to that loss. In fact, that setback was France’s first international loss since October 2022. This is an experienced, talented group capable of lifting the trophy when it is all said and done. Take them to grab three points here, while potentially finding more value in France -2.5 (-245) or France -3.5 (+100).
