It is in a heavy atmosphere that theFrench team returns to the field this Thursday evening against Israel. The geopolitical context surrounding this poster makes it a very high-risk match at the Stade de France. Beyond these considerations concerning security around the match, the sporting aspect will also be important for the Blues who are going through a delicate period.
There are the results, rather honorable. After the dry setback against Italy at the start of the school year (1-3), the Deschamps gang has righted the bar on an accounting level, with a first victory against Israel and above all two successes against Belgium. But there is the impression left, too. Sometimes insufficient, often inconsistent, the Blues’ play leaves something to be desired. So many questions reinforced by the vagueness around Kylian Mbappé, absent for the second time in two months. The stage is set.
The expected compositions:
France : Maignan – Koundé, Upamecano, Konaté, T. Hernandez – Zaire-Emery, Kanté, Camavinga – Olise, Kolo Muani, Barcola.
Israel : Glazer – Baltaxa, Nachmias, Feingold – Haziza, Kanichowsky, Abu Fani, Adada – Gloukh, Peretz – Madmon.
