France's 1998 victory on home soil and their 2018 triumph in Russia represent the team's greatest achievements, while England's 1966 World Cup victory remains their only global championship."},{"question":"What is the head-to-head record between England and France?","answer":"In competitive matches, France leads with 4 wins to England's 3 wins, with 7 draws. England's most recent competitive victory was 3-2 in the 2012 UEFA Euro qualifying round. Their last competitive meeting was in September 2022 (Nations League draw 0-0)."},{"question":"Which team has performed better recently?","answer":"England has slightly better recent momentum, reaching the Euro 2020 final (won), Euro 2024 final (runner-up), and demonstrating consistent knockout stage progression. France won the 2018 World Cup but has faced earlier exits in 2022 World Cup (runner-up) and 2024 Euro (semi-finals), indicating a relative decline from peak form."},{"question":"Who would likely win in a current matchup?","answer":"France remains the historical favorite due to superior head-to-head record and World Cup pedigree, but England's recent tournament form and squad depth (particularly in attacking options) make them competitive peers. Current odds slightly favor France, but the result would likely depend on team form on the day and tactical execution."},{"question":"How do their squad compositions differ?","answer":"England relies heavily on Premier League talent with stars like Kane, Foden, and Saka providing attacking prowess. France has traditionally had more balanced squad distribution across European leagues (PSG, Real Madrid, Bayern Munich) but recently depends more on PSG players. England's squad is younger on average, while France has experience from their 2018 World Cup winning core."}],"faqPageSchema":{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"FAQPage","@id":"https://www.aversusb.net/compare/england-vs-france-football))#faq","url":"https://www.aversusb.net/compare/england-vs-france-football))","inLanguage":"en-US","name":"England vs France Football Teams — FAQ","description":"Frequently asked questions about England vs France Football Teams","dateModified":"2026-07-07T03:17:17.306Z","author":{"@type":"Organization","@id":"https://www.aversusb.net/#organization","name":"A Versus B"},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","@id":"https://www.aversusb.net/#organization","name":"A Versus B"},"isPartOf":{"@type":"Article","@id":"https://www.aversusb.net/compare/england-vs-france-football))#article"},"license":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/","speakable":{"@type":"SpeakableSpecification","cssSelector":["#faq",".faq-item"]},"mainEntity":[{"@type":"Question","name":"Which team has won more World Cups?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"France has won 2 FIFA World Cups (1998, 2018) compared to England's 1 (1966).
