France and Germany face off against each other in what promises to be an exciting quarter-final in the UEFA Women's European Championships in Switzerland on Saturday night. Les Bleues have been one of the outstanding teams of the tournament so far, and will surely fancy themselves to progress to the semi-finals.
Indeed, they won all three of their games in Group D, including impressive 2-1 and 5-2 victories against the holders England and heavyweights the Netherlands respectively. Germany finished in second place in Group C, after a disappointing 4-1 defeat to Sweden in their previous outing.

France Women preview: Captain Mbock fit enough to start
France captain Griedge Mbock should be fit enough to play from the start in what would be a big boost for Les Bleues. The influential Grace Geyoro is also pushing for a start having been left on the bench against the Netherlands last time out.
Predicted lineup: Peyraud-Magnin (GK); De Almeida, Mbock, Bacha; Jean-Francois, Geyoro, Karchaoui; Cascarino, Baltimore & Katoto

Germany Women preview: Wamser suspended
Carlotta Wamser will serve a suspension after receiving a straight red card against Sweden last time out. While France may be able to recall their captain, Germany will not have that luxury, as Giulia Gwinn remains on the sidelines after picking up a knee injury against Poland in their opening game of the tournament.
Predicted lineup: Berger (GK); Hendrich, Minge, Knaak, Linder; Senss, Nusken; Brand, Dallmann, Buhl & Schuller

Player to watch: Sakina Karchaoui
Sakina Karchaoui has been nothing short of excellent for France in the tournament so far, starting with a highly influential performance against England and ending with a goal and assist against the Netherlands in the group stage. She also netted the winning goal when the two teams last met in February of last year, and so Germany will have to keep an eye especially on her ahead of the clash on Saturday night.
