Preview:
France, who have already booked themselves a place in the Round of 16, will meet Tunisia in their final Group D encounter. Comfortable wins over Australia and Denmark have done no harm to their reputation as one of the competition favourites and even if they just about manage to avoid a loss here would give them the distinction of being the table toppers. Tunisia, on the other hand, are in a must-win situation and the fact that they will face the defending champions makes their job even tougher.

Conclusion:
Tunisia have shown world-class defence but have lacked in offense. A similar story could be repeated in this game. Having said that, France should be able to get past the Tunisian defence and get the 3 points in this match.
