There’s also a new captain in town, with Kylian Mbappe now given the national team armband following Lloris’ retirement. Head coach Didier Deschamps has surged the shuffle in the FA, which has seen French football federation president N\u00f6el le Graet resign. The World Cup winner will be desperate to begin this new era with a win here over fellow Group B favourite, the Netherlands. History places Les Bleus as the favourites for a win here, as the hosts have five wins across the previous six H2Hs against the Netherlands (L1).

Like their hosts, the Oranje also saw their World Cup journey ended by Argentina in the quarter-finals. However, the Netherlands are also rebuilding, with new coach Ronald Koeman taking over the reins after Louis van Gaal resigned after the World Cup. The former Barcelona boss has experience in this job, having been in charge of the Dutch national team before.
