France has the opportunity to secure its place at the next Euro by getting the better of the Netherlands at home.
Due to a flawless performance since the start of qualifying, the French team can validate its ticket for the final phase of the Euro this Friday. To do this, it would have to get rid of the Netherlands on their lands.
The Blues aim for the grand slam
After crushing the Oranje at home at the start of the preliminary round, the Tricolores will look to drive the point home. A task that is within their reach, despite the numerous defections recorded in defense. Because if the Blues have been decimated, this is also the case for the Batavians. Ronald Koeman also has several packages in his camp. A cascade of injuries which also brought Virgil Van Dijk and Aurélien Tchouaméni railed at a press conference against the overloaded schedule.
Serious until then, the French will try the other until the end. Because beyond the ticket for the European Championship, there is also a place in hat 1 of the draw to be secured. This requires a flawless performance between now and the end of qualifying.
On Dutch soil, the French will therefore be expected around the corner. And this will be the case more particularly for Kylian Mbappé. Without a goal scored in four club matches, the PSG star must reassure his admirations. Didier Deschamps is hopeful of seeing him bounce back, especially as he sees him getting better and better physically.
The probable teams of the Netherlands – France:
The Netherlands : Verbruggen; De Vrij, Van Dijk, Ake; Dumfries, De Roon, Veerman, Blind; Simons, Weghorst, Malen
France : Maignan – Clauss, Konaté, L. Hernandez, T. Hernandez – Griezmann, Tchouameni, Rabiot – Coman, Kolo Muani, Mbappé.
