France-Denmark: Blues start with Varane and Kunde in defence, Dembele confirms on the right

Didier Deschamps makes two substitutions after the first success against Australia (4-1). Against Denmark this Saturday, France will keep their four-back formation, but half of the line will be updated.

Taoullier Rafael Varane, who recovered a month from a hamstring injury at Manchester United, is regaining his starting spot in the right axis. He will be accompanied by Dayot Upamecano, very prominent on Tuesday. The big loser of this composition is called Benjamin Pavard. He cedes his spot at right-back to Jules Kundet, another pivot-favorite defender but was selected during this competition to fill the lineout.

Ousmane Dembele confirmed

Didier Deschamps does not want to relive the same “suffering” as in June and September against Denmark. These two defeats give measure to Christian Eriksen’s team, which should score points after a draw with Tunisia (0-0). The tricolor midfielder, re-formed by the duo Aurelien Chouameny-Adrien Rabiot and the freer Antoine Griezmann, will have to correct several imbalances seen against the Soccer when they lost the ball.

From his right flank, Ousmane Dembele’s spark will also be brought to these defensive tasks. Olivier Giroud, who is one unit away from the all-time goalscoring record for France, will be in charge of the execution of the action. Like Kylian Mbappe on the left. Starting at 17:00 in France.
