MATCH PREDICTION
The French are expected to welcome back their captain, Kylian Mbappe, for what is actually a crucial game. They narrowly escaped defeat against the Netherlands with help from VAR on Friday and Les Bleus are still challenging to win Group D – which could be key. The winners of Group D will head into the bottom-half of the Round of 16 draw and that means they would avoid the likes of Germany, Spain and Portugal. Poland have already been eliminated with their captain, Robert Lewandowski, unable to start either of their opening fixtures and they were the first team to be knocked out after they were beaten 3-1 by Austria. This is a kind match-up for France given their situation and a comfortable victory is to be expected.
