France U21 are a win away from sealing their spot in the UEFA U21 Championship knockouts when they take on Norway U21 in Sunday's Group D fixture.
Having edged Italy 2-1 on Thursday, Sylvain Ripoll oversaw his side getting off to a winning start in the tournament.
On the other hand, Leif Gunnar Smerud's side let go of an early lead as they succumbed to a 2-1 loss against Switzerland and they are now looking to pull off a shocker in order to open up the group.
