Coach Domenico Tedesco lines up in a 4-2-3-1 formation and while he was without some big names like Kevin de Bruyne and Romelu Lukaku it remains a strong side.

Lois Openda of RB Leipzig leads the line, supported by Arsenal’s Leandro Trossard and Manchester City’s Jeremy Doku.

Tielemans is partnered in the middle by Orel Mangala while Wout Faes and Timothy Castagne offer more Premier League quality at the back.

Deschamps is without Kylian Mbappe and the recently retired Antoine Griezmann so Paris St-Germain trio Randal Kolo Muani, Ousmane Dembele and Bradley Barcola join up in attack.

Premier League threesome Lucas Digne, Ibrahima Konate and William Saliba are joined in defence by Barcelona’s Jules Kounde.
