We know what we have to do to stay in control of our destiny. went through a victory, declared Didier Deschamps at a press conference on Monday. For this, its players will have to regain their defensive solidity and be more inspired offensively.

In the midfield, Jordan Veretout could accompany Paul Pogba, Aurlien Tchouamni so much diminished after his sole received on Saturday. In defense, if the side Lo Dubois and Lucas Digne will undoubtedly be led back into the corridors, Presnel Kimpembe begins to stick his tongue out and should start on the bench, while Raphal Varane must make his return to the eleven alongside Kurt Zouma. Finally, Karim Benzema, on the bench for an hour on Saturday, should accompany Antoine Griezmann in attack. The duo are eagerly awaited to help the Blues find their way back to success.
