One of the favorites of the 2022 FIFA World Cup and also the defending champions, France will look to book their place in the knockout stages with a win against the balanced Denmark side in their second groiup stage game. France looked absolutely unstoppable in their first match against Australia in the first match as they thrashed them 4-1.
On the other hand, Denmark who has been a top team for the last few months made it to the semi-finals of the Euro Cup last year and also made it to the Nations League semis this year. Denmark has already beaten France a few months back and they would look to repeat that performance and pick their first win of the FIFA World Cup after being held to a goalless draw by Tunisia in the first match.
2022 FIFA World Cup France v Denmark: Preview and Team News
France is expected to play a 4-2-3-1 formation with the experienced Olivier Giroud leading the attack for the side. And with the past pacy young duo of Kylian Mbappe and Ousmane Dembele in the attacking half, the team will cause a lot of trouble to the Danish defense, and the young exciting prospect Aurelien Tchouameni will need to bring his A-game to stop the Danish attackers as well.
On the other hand, all the players in the Denmark squad are currently fit and as things stand, there is no news of any sort of injuries except Thomas Delaney came off with a knee injury at halftime against Tunisia. So all the players are expected to be prepared for the match tomorrow and pick their first win of this World Cup against the defending champions, France.
