Belgium – France: probable line-ups

In this journey in the middle of a zone of turbulence, the French team has a chance to land without too many problems this evening. In a rally where the Blues were deprived of their captain Kylian Mbappé and Antoine Griezmann (international retirement), ending this international break by signing a second victory in two matches would be a small relief for a little spared Didier Deschamps.

Winner of Israel (4-1), France will have to work harder against Belgium. Because if the Tricolores had won 2 goals to 0 last September, the Red Devils promise them a tougher return match. While waiting to see if the hosts will keep their word, here is what the eleven aligned by the national coach should look like, who has no major absentees. The French eleven should be structured in the form of a 4-2-3-1. Mike Maignan will be in goal and he should find an almost typical defense.

Guendouzi instead of Olise?

Indeed, Lucas Digne would be the only novelty (in place of Theo Hernandez) in a rearguard made up of Jules Koundé, Ibrahima Konaté and William Saliba. In the middle, Manu Koné would replace Eduardo Camavinga alongside captain Aurélien Tchouaméni. A notch above, Mattéo Guendouzi would take Michael Olise’s place in the heart of the game, with Ousmane Dembélé and Christopher Nkunku. Finally, Randal Kolo Muani would be at the forefront.

Opposite, Domenico Tedesco would also line up a 4-2-3-1 with Casteels in the cages. In defense, the Castagne-Faes-Theate-De Cuyper quartet would be aligned. In recovery, we move towards a Vranckx-Tielemans tandem. Finally, as for the attack, the Lukebakio-Trossard-Doku trio should be responsible for supplying Openda with ammunition.
