Match Preview, Team Information, and France vs Scotland Lineups

France

Since losing the World Cup final to Argentina, France has played seven matches winning six times and losing only once. That happened last month in a friendly match against Germany. They won all the official games for EUROs 2024 qualification including on Friday away to the Netherlands.

Probable lineup: Maignan, L. Hernandez, Konate, Fofana, Clauss, T. Hernandez, Griezmann, Rabiot, Kolo Muani, Giroud, Coman.

Scotland

The visiting team lost their first match in the EUROs 2024 qualifying campaign going down to Spain, but they still have a relevant chance of progressing to the Germany-hosted tournament next summer.

Probable lineup: Gunn, Hickey, Porteous, Hendry, McKenna, Robertson, McGregor, McTominay, McGinn, Christie, Dykes.

Player to Watch: Randal Kolo Muani

The 24-year-old striker who joined PSG over the summer from Eintracht Frankfurt has been playing well this Ligue 1 season even though he started less than half of all the games played by the French champions. In four appearances, Kolo Muani scored twice and assisted on a couple of occasions as well. Looking at his France stats, it should be a lot better than a single goal in eleven caps.

Kolo Muani put Europe on notice with his performances for Nantes and the team that took a chance on his talent was Eintracht for whom he scored 26 goals and delivered 17 assists in 50 appearances. He was part of one of the biggest transfers of the past summer.
