France Form

Three wins from four Nations League fixtures leaves France second in Group A2. Les Blues are one point behind Italy and the sides meet in a potential first vs second showdown on Sunday.

Didier Deschamps’ side lost their opening Nations League game 3-1 against Italy. They replied with three consecutive victories, including a 4-1 win against Israel in October.

Les Blues followed that result with a 2-1 away win in Belgium. Randal Kolo Muani’s double was enough to seal a French win despite Aurelien Tchouameni’s late sending-off.
