Think it will be a tough ask for anyone to beat France at home this tournament. Although we can't take anything out of them beating a weakened Scotland side tonight (a first XI is weak enough!) they just look the most balanced and abundant squad out of them all. They were unfortunate in coming up against a fully flourished German side in Brazil two years ago (of it wasn't for Germany they would be certain finalists/third place at the World Cup) but this time I reckon they have the measure of the Germans if they come up against them.
I would personally like to see Germany do the business again but the French are comfortable favourites for me. Deschamps is a fine manager and he's got a fine squad throughout.
