I like France by two goals.

Portugal has looked solid all tournament and at +333 is really worth a shot.

It sure does and another reason I am taking Portugal is because I hate the French.

I hate france, also, but they will annhilate portugal if both teams play the top of their game.
Both teams sleptwalked in their group games, it's just... Portugal didn't even play anyone until the final 16. They did VERY well against Holland and damn, I still am shocked they got to the final 4 (same with France)...
But right now, France has put up 2 of the most impressive games I've seen so far (offense/defense).
Don't trust my pick for this game no matter what, but I think if France plays how they have the last 2 games, I'm pretty certain they can win the cup... Their last 2 games have been VERY impressive with TONS of quality effort.
I don't think Portugal has a chance, but then again, I still believe there are a lot of teams out there better than them... But they keep winning... Ya can't fade a winner.

France is getting better every game. Played very organized against Brazil. Starting to really gel. Portugal has been scrappy all the way. Not one convincing performance yet.
France has been here before. During the tournament they've begun to reclaim their '98 spirit. This is unknown territory for Portugal. Should come down to experience. Portugal is hard to beat, but with Zidane as general France will be able to pick them apart.

I hate to admit it, but I strongly suspect France will win this one comfortably.

Of course, GO ITALY! We don't want an african team winning the CUP after all.
