While it is expected almost an hour before the match against Israel, the Blues lineup would have leaked a few hours earlier.
For the fifth day of the group stage of the League of Nations, the France team and Israel face each other this Thursday evening (8:45 p.m.) at the Stade de France. A few hours before kick-off, Didier Deschamps' composition would have been known to the general sporting public.
Towards the tenure of Olise and Zaire-Emery?
Unlike the 4-3-2-1 against the Israelis last month, the coach of the France team would focus on a much more offensive system this evening at the Stade de France. As was the case against Belgium in Brussels in October, the Blues should be in 4-3-3 against Israel this Thursday evening. According to The Teamthe Blues session, this Wednesday evening, gave rise to a set-up. Indeed, Mike Maignan will be untouchable in the cages. The Konaté – Upamecano hinge should be installed with Jules Koundé and Théo Hernandez on the sides.

Returning to the group this month after his absence during the last rally, N'Golo Kanté will wear the captain's armband to accompany Eduardo Camavinga and Warren Zaire-Emery in the midfield. In attack, the trio Barcola – Kolo Muani – Olise should be aligned to seek qualification, since a victory or a draw qualifies the Blues for the quarter-finals.
