Team News

France
Croatia
  • After the first leg defeat in Split, Didier Deschamps will be expected to make changes here, particularly to his forward line.
  • Ibrahima Konate was forced off through injury at half-time on Thursday, and will likely be an enforced change, with Dayot Upamecano to come in for the Liverpool defender.
  • Elsewhere, Bradley Barcola and Eduardo Camavinga could make the starting XI in Paris, at the expense of Randal Kolo Muani and Matteo Guendouzi.
  • Zlatko Dalic will be delighted with the performance from his side in Thursday's first leg, and it would be a surprise to see many, if any changes here.
  • Expect the in-form Ivan Perisic to continue from the right, having scored and assisted in the first meeting.
  • Atalanta's Mario Pasalic could be a solitary change for the visitors, replacing Martin Baturina in attacking midfield.

Prediction

  • After the 2-0 home victory in Thursday's first leg, Croatia have now won their last two meetings with France without conceding a goal.
  • That impressive defensive record will surely come to an end in Paris on Sunday, but the away side are in a strong position to progress from here.
  • France's home form has been patchy of late, with Les Bleus winning just one of their three Nations League group games on home soil, against Belgium.
  • Meanwhile, Croatia failed to win any of their three away matches in the group phase, and will be hoping for a stronger performance on the road here.
  • Expect the hosts to get their act together here, but it may not be enough for them to advance to the semi-finals on aggregate.
