France will face Bosnia & Herzegovina in the FIFA World Cup qualifiers tonight (Wednesday).
The world champions have begun their qualifying campaign in decent fashion.
The first set of games took place at the end of March, as the French recorded two wins and a draw to lead Group D.
Those victories came against Kazakhstan and Bosnia, while Didier Deschamps’ side managed an entertaining draw against Ukraine who sit four points behind in second place.
Bosnia & Herzegovina are in a difficult position heading into this particular clash with France. Currently fifth in Group D, they have one point from two games.
The side hasn’t won a competitive or non-competitive contest since November 2019, which probably slims down the chances of a shock victory over the world champions.
A chunk of that terrible run of form was overseen by former manager Dusan Bajevic, who endured an eight-game winless run.
However, since the appointment of Ivaylo Petev, the new manager has helped the team secure draws against Montenegro, Costa Rica and Finland.
France Vs Bosnia Lineup
France XI (4-2-3-1): Lloris, Kounde, Varane, Kimpembe, Digne, Tolisso, Pogba, Lottin, Griezmann, Coman, Benzema
Bosnia XI (3-5-2): Sehic, Ahmedhodzic, Hadzikadunic, Sanicanin, Cipetic, Pjanic, Cimirot, Gojak, Kolasinac, Dzeko, Krunic
