No nation has won back-to-back World Cups since Brazil in 1962 but France are only two games away from becoming just the third side in history to complete this historic feat.
The first of those games is a semi-final against Morocco in the Al Bayt Stadium on Wednesday night and it's a game France will expect to win. So, too, do the bookmakers who make Les Blues just 8/15 (with Betfred) to do what Spain and Portugal could not and score the goal that will knock Morocco out of this tournament.
The North Africans, who are already the first team from that continent to make it to a World Cup semi-final, are 13/2 to continue their remarkable run and make it to the final.
