France carry a huge expectation to win big in Group C and they kick off their World Cup campaign against Australia.
Les Bleus are on a mission since losing the Euro 2016 on home soil to Portugal, but Didier Deschamps squad is expected to breeze through their group against Peru, Denmark and the Socceroos. With all four teams looking rich in talent, France needs to be extra wary if they intend to qualify to the final 16. France right-back Djibril Sidibe is still suffering from a knee injury, so it looks like Benjamin Pavard is set to start in his place.
Australia could drop Mile Jedinak but head coach Bert van Marwijk might play Massimo Luongo in central midfield.
Both teams are looking strong, but France will have to battle it out for a win.
