France comes into this match with a solid recent performance, having won their last match against Northern Ireland. With a two-week rest since that game, they should be well-rested and ready to perform. The team has no reported injuries or suspensions, allowing them to field their strongest lineup. As they embark on their World Cup campaign, France will look to build on their recent successes and establish themselves early in the tournament.

Iraq

Team Overview

Iraq faced Venezuela in their last outing but unfortunately fell short, losing 2-0 at home. This defeat adds to their challenges as they gear up to face a formidable French side.

Iraq's recent form has been mixed, with a loss to Venezuela following a draw against Spain. They have had a 12-day break since their last match, which should provide some recovery time. However, with no injuries or suspensions reported, they will aim to put forth their best effort against France. As they enter the World Cup, Iraq will need to find ways to improve their attacking play to compete effectively.
