Group I opener at MetLife. Olise is France’s creative outlet from the right. 26 assists for Bayern last season + 16 goals - that’s end product from cut-ins and long range. Senegal sit deep and force France wide, so Olise gets 1v1s and shooting space. France dominate possession vs AFCON champs and Deschamps wants early goals. Just 1 shot on target needed. With Mbappé drawing defenders, Olise gets the angles to test the keeper.

Austria are the stronger side on paper. European quality + physical midfield vs Jordan debutants. Arnautović + Baumgartner give them goals. Jordan defend well vs Asia, but this is World Cup level. Austria need 2 goals to cash - 2-0, 3-1 all land.

Austria create chances from set pieces + transitions. Just 2 goals needed.
