With the knockout stages approaching and victories over Australia and Denmark under his belt, manager Didier Deschamps might make some adjustments to the starting XI with the inclusion of Eduardo Camavinga or Matteo Guendozi in the middle of the park and Marcus Thuram in place of Olivier Giroud.

Didier Deschamps may use this chance to give certain players who have yet to playtime as qualification is already guaranteed. That might entail rests for players like Olivier Giroud and Raphael Varane, who have only recently returned from injuries. Kylian Mbappe has already scored three goals in this tournament, so it won’t be easy to persuade him to take a break.

For Tunisia, Jalal Kadri may turn to Wahbi Khazri, a former Premier League favorite, to stir things up in attack if they are to go all out for the win. Although Naim Sliti and Youssef Msakni are preferred in the forward positions behind striker Issam Jebali, the former Sunderland forward has yet to start a game in attack. However, he may get the chance here.

2022 FIFA World Cup France v Tunisia: Predictions

France has had a dream start to the tournament and with Olivier Giroud becoming the highest-scoring player in international matches he would certainly be boosted by this achievement. Kylian Mbappe is in a red hot form which makes it harder for the manager to rest him for this match and with such an in-form team Tunisia might easily lose 3-0.
