Team News
Skipper Sandie Toletti and Kadidiatou Diani have returned to training for France after injuries.
For Germany, right-back and skipper Giulia Gwinn is out of the tournament and her replacement, Carlotta Wamser, is suspended after being red carded in the 4-1 loss to Sweden.
Germany might be the eight-time winners of the Women's Euros, but it's France who get the nod from the market at 21/20 inside 90 minutes. The Germans are available at 5/2 and the draw trades at 13/5.
France to win @ 21/20
France, yet to win the Women's Euros, might think this is their moment after storming through the group stage, and they certainly look to have a sizeable edge over Germany.
The French were outstanding in topping a tough Group D with a 2-1 win over champions England in their first game being a statement triumph.
It means Laurent Bonadei's team now boast a perfect 11 wins out of 11 record in 2025 and there is an absolute swagger about their front-line of Sandy Baltimore and Delphine Cascarino either side of Marie-Antoinette Katoto.
Only Spain went through the group stage having fired off more efforts on target than Les Bleues, and they will test out Germany's weak defence.
Christian Wuck's back four looks like an accident waiting to happen, with inexperience in central defence and no recognised right-back, and that will be music to the ears of Cascarino, who ran England and Netherlands ragged out wide.
Germany have a winner's mentality but they looked way off the pace crashing 4-1 to Sweden, who aren't a great side by any measure.
If France turn it on - and don't get lazy as they threatened to do at the back end of their win over England - they should win this well.

Sakina Karchaoui anytime scorer @ 9/2
There are goals from everywhere in the French side with five attackers, plus attacking full-backs, roaming forward whenever possible.
Paris Saint-Germain's Sakina Karchaoui is one of those with a licence to get forward from midfield.
She has been rewarded with a goal in the 5-2 win over the Dutch, her fourth international goal, the third arriving just last month in a friendly triumph over Belgium.
Karchaoui has unloaded six shots in three games - one as a late sub in the 4-1 win over Wales - with three on target.
The German defenders will be preoccupied with France's headline-grabbing front three and that could gift Karchaoui opportunities coming from deep.
