The 2018 World Cup quarter-finals will start with a great game when Uruguay and France meet at the Nizhny Novgorod Stadium. The finalists of Euro 2016 have the chance to reach the semifinals of this competition for the first time since 1998. After two consecutive victories against Australia (2-1) and Peru (1-0), the Gallic team drew without goals against Denmark but also finished as Group C leader undefeated. In the last 16, coach Didier Deschamps led his team to an exciting but sustained 4-3 win against Argentina, which secured a place in the quarterfinals. The Uruguayan team finished at the top of Group A thanks to three consecutive victories where they did not receive any goals against. Then he beat Portugal 2-1 in the round of 16 thanks to a double by Edinson Cavani, so those led by Óscar Tabárez are only one triumph to get into the semifinals of the World Cup for the second time in the last three tournaments ( he was also among the best four in South Africa 2010). France and Uruguay add eight matches to each other in all competitions. The French cast has a negative record since it has only won one game (W1, D4, L3) and also has a goal difference of -4 (four in favor, eight against).
