-------------------------------
Match Preview:
France, semi-finalists at the 2022 World Cup, are aiming for a fifth consecutive European Championships quarter-final appearance. They are in a commanding position after a strong 2-1 victory over reigning champions England on Matchday 1, courtesy of goals from Marie-Antoinette Katoto and Sandy Baltimore. Laurent Bonadei's side is in superb form, having won their last nine matches since December. A win against Wales, coupled with a Netherlands draw or win against England, would secure France a top-two spot with a game to spare.

Wales, making their major tournament debut, endured a tough start with a 3-0 defeat to the Netherlands. The Dragons have struggled for form, winless in their last seven outings and failing to score more than one goal in that period. They face a daunting task against a high-flying French side. A loss for Wales, combined with a Netherlands avoidance of defeat, would see them eliminated.

Match Prediction:
France's attacking prowess and defensive solidity are expected to be too much for the tournament newcomers. We predict a comfortable 3-0 victory for France, who will likely secure their spot in the next round.
