What is the team news?

France will come into these international fixtures without Bayern Munich midfielder Corentin Tolisso who will be unavailable until 2019 due to a cruciate ligament injury.

Barcelona centre back Samuel Umtiti is also a possible doubt for the game with a knee injury.

Iceland will still be depending on their old faithful squad that surprised the world at the European Championship in 2016 and put in a decent performance at the 2018 World Cup.

They will be heavily relying on their key playmaker, Everton's Gylfi Sigurdsson, who is currently enjoying some good form in the Premier League.

They will however be missing their loyal captain Aron Gunnarsson who suffered a knee injury during preseason with his club, Cardiff.

Mentally this could be a big loss for Iceland as he has been a key figure in their recent success.
