Kylian Mbappe — Anytime Goalscorer vs. England (-155)
Mbappe has 8 goals at this tournament, tied with Messi for the lead. He’s not playing in the final. This game is his only shot at the Golden Boot, which is the one piece of hardware he can still take home from this World Cup.
He will be hunting from minute one. A player of his caliber, with that much pride, isn’t coasting through a third-place game with the Golden Boot on the line.
And there’s another layer to this one. It’s Didier Deschamps’ final match in charge of France after more than a decade as manager. Mbappe will want to send his coach out with a win and a performance to remember.
He’s scored in 5 of France’s 6 matches at this tournament. England have conceded in 5 of their 7 games. Yes, you’re paying juice at -155, but this is always a good play, especially after the French were blanked in the semifinal. Back Mbappe to go goal hunting one last time.
