Home team:

Italy heads into this Nations League Group A1 match, to be played at the Giuseppe Meazza, on the back of two consecutive victories; however, their recent record in Milan is a cause for concern, as they have suffered three straight defeats at this venue. Roberto Mancini’s side sits second in the group with eight points - two fewer than France - and must win if they hope to challenge for the top spot. In their most recent outings, the team has predominantly opted for a 4-3-3 formation.

The visitors:

France arrives in great form, having won three of their last five matches, despite a couple of earlier setbacks. Zinédine Zidane’s side leads Group A1 with ten points and boasts a very solid defense, having conceded just two goals in the competition. Injuries to several key players have presented Zidane with a real dilemma when it comes to selecting his starting eleven, though his decision to integrate young talent could bring a breath of fresh air to the team. The previous encounter between the two sides ended in a 1–1 draw.
