France – The 2018 World Cup winner have arguably the best squad on paper with the likes of Paul Pogba, Kylian Mbappe, N’Golo Kante and Antoine Griezmann all featuring. Karim Benzema has made a return to the national team after a brilliant season with Real Madrid and there is a sense of stability about them with coach Didier Deschamps around for some time. France have two world class talent for every position and they will dominate teams at the mega event.

England – Gareth Southgate’s England reached the semis in the 2018 World Cup but did not replicate that form in the Nation’s League. They have some real swashbuckling young talent in Phil Foden, Marcus Rashford and Declan Rice, who can be world class on their day. Harry Kane is an excellent marksman and certainly one of the best forwards in the competition.
