The French have started their reign brilliantly under their new captain Kylian Mbappe with a 4-0 win against a listless Netherlands. They look to continue their dominance against a nervy Ireland who is coming at the back of a 5-goal thriller. Unfortunately for the Irish, they blew a two-goal lead but were able to get the winner. The Irish narrowly missed out on qualifying for the last Euro and will be looking to make amends.

It will be a surprise if they manage to scrape a result against this French team. The World Cup finalists would be disappointed to not win this fixture. They are as strong as ever with many of the best players in the world on their team. There were murmurs of a disagreement between Griezmann and the coach as he handed the armband to a younger and comparatively inexperienced Mbappe. They looked to be resolved on the field as they both combined for the first goal against Holland.

Head to Head:

The head-to-head is surprisingly close as in the 17 games these sides have played in their history France has won 8 drawn 5 and lost 4. In recent history after 2000 France has won 2 and drawn 2 out of the 4 games played.
