France hosts Iceland at Parc des Princes on Tuesday in World Cup qualifying Group D, with both teams looking to build on opening wins.
Les Bleus edged past Ukraine 2-0 but hardly convinced, as Didier Deschamps once again faced questions about whether his pragmatic approach is holding back a squad loaded with attacking talent.
Even so, France’s recent record at home is solid, and with Kylian Mbappe, Bradley Barcola, and Michael Olise spearheading the attack, they remain heavy favourites to secure another three points.
Iceland arrives on the back of a 5-0 thrashing of Azerbaijan, though history offers little encouragement. They’ve never beaten France in 15 attempts.
New boss Arnar Gunnlaugsson has made them more disciplined, but away form remains a concern, with three defeats in their last four on the road. So, the visitors will likely have to be near-perfect defensively to avoid another frustrating night against one of Europe’s elite.
