France will be without Eduardo Camavinga, who has been forced to pull out of the squad on the eve on Thursday night’s game against Ukraine.
The Real Madrid midfielder has been struggling with a muscular injury since arriving at Clairefontaine and had been training seperately. He has been replaced by Khéphren Thuram, who is nonetheless not expected to start in the FIFA World Cup qualifier. Jules Koundé has also trained individually in recent days but will be fit enough to start for France.
Rayan Cherki and Michael Olise are both expected to start in Les Bleus’ attack, with the former in the No.10 and the latter on the right. Paris Saint-Germain’s Bradley Barcola is expected to start on the left and Kylian Mbappé will captain and lead the line.
