The two sides, who before a ball was kicked, were the favourites to miss out on the top two spots and fail to progress through to the knockouts.
With France playing second favourites in Group D, in Denmark, it’s a potential winner takes all in this one, after Tunisia fought for a hard and well deserved 0-0 draw against the Danes.
Australia, who took a surprising 1-0 lead in the 9th minute against France, failed to build on Craig Goodwin’s opener and were punished by France’s quality infront of goal. The 4-1 loss could prove damaging, should it come down to goal difference. Having only 38% possession and managing to score with their only shot on goal, Australia will want to try to dominate the game a little more than they did against the French.
As for Tunisia, their 0-0 draw against Denmark made it 9 clean sheets in their last 10 games, meaning Australia will have to be at their best if you want to find the back of the net.
I’m expecting a close, cagey affair in this one. With a potential draw on the cards with both teams in need of a win.
Score Prediction: 1-1
Bet Prediction: Under 2.5 Goals
