Sunday’s football tips: Try an 11/10 France bet as they battle Colombia in American friendly

It's a slow Sunday for football punters but we have a couple of international fixtures to keep us amused, with Colombia's clash against France taking top billing.

Both nations are taking part in the Road to 26 series, which sees teams playing World Cup warm-up games in America.

France beat Brazil 2-1 in Foxborough on Thursday and now head to Maryland for another clash against South American opposition.

Colombia vs France top betting tips

The Colombians were also in action on Thursday, losing 2-1 to Croatia in Florida, so they will be looking for a more positive result against Les Bleus.

A lot will depend on how strong a team each manager picks but the French are 4/6 favourites with most firms while Colombia are as big as 18/5 with Unibet.

Didier Deschamps certainly has more strength in depth so those odds look about right. I'm going to combine a France win with over 1.5 goals to boost the price to 11/10 at SkyBet.

Players who didn't feature against Brazil should get a run-out and I'd imagine we'll see Rayan Cherki at some point. The Manchester City maverick is 21/10 at Unibet for anytime scorer.

Lesotho vs Seychelles

There's also a couple of Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers today, with Lesotho's clash against Seychelles the only one I can see a market for.

The storm from this season's final is still raging, after Senegal were controversially stripped of the title, but the preliminary round for the next tournament is already underway.

These sides ground out a dreary 0-0 draw in the first leg on Thursday but Lesotho are now heavy favourites to finish the job back on home soil.

They've won both their previous fixtures at home to Seychelles so it's easy to see why Bet365 price Lesotho at just 3/10.

Given the lack of action in the first leg, combining the home win with under 2.5 goals could pay off today at 12/5.

There's precious few bets available for this game but backing Lesotho to be winning at half-time and full-time may be the safest option at 10/11 with the same firm.

Chelsea Women vs Aston Villa Women

In the Women's Super League, Chelsea boss Sonia Bompastor will be looking for a response against Aston Villa after their midweek Champions League loss to Arsenal.

Bompastor was fuming over refereeing decisions in that 3-1 defeat but now needs to move on as Chelsea bid to keep their title hopes alive.

The Blues trail leaders Manchester City by 12 points so they can't afford to slip up at home to mid-table Villa this afternoon.

The Villans have lost eight of their 18 games so far and are 9/1 outsiders at Bet365 today. Chelsea should be too strong for them and a win to nil pays evens at Bet365.

Bompastor has Aussie star Sam Kerr back after injury but she doesn't offer much value at just 8/11 for anytime scorer. Lauren James is a better price at evens with 888Sport in the same market.
