Team news & squads

France U23 team news

Henry will continue with his full-strength squad with captain Alexandre Lacazette leading the line alongside Jean-Philippe Mateta, with Bayern Munich's Michael Olise supporting right behind.

Goalkeeper Guillaume Restes will be shielded by centre-back duo Loic Bade and Castello Lukeba in central defence.

While Manu Kone marshals the midfield, Enzo Millot is suspended with a red card last time out. So Maghnes Akliouche should slot in as the replacement on the right side.
