France:
Having comfortably seen off Ireland 2-0 under the Parisian rain on Monday night, Didier Deschamps' men are hoping to continue on their path of destruction as they head towards this summer's tournament in Russia. Star man Antoine Greizmann could start this clash after being named on the bench against Ireland.
Italy:
Disappointed to have not qualified for the World Cup, Italy will be determined to show they are still a force to be reckoned with when they lock horns with one of the favourites to claim the World Cup. The 'Azzurri' will be hoping to build on their 2-1 victory against Saudi Arabia earlier this week with Mario Balotelli particularly keen to continue progressing following his emphatic return to the national side.
France boss Dider Deschamps:
Following Zinedine Zidane's Real Madrid departure announcement, Deschamps said: "He will definitely be a coach of the French team someday."
Italy boss Roberto Mancini:
Speaking about Balotelli's goalscoring return against Saudi Arabia, Mancini told 'La Gazetta dello Sport': "For his first game back, Mario was good enough. I would say it was a positive display, above and beyond the goal"
Possible line-ups:
France: Lloris; Sidibe, Umtiti, Kimpembe, Mendy; Dembele, Pogba, Tolisso, Thauvin; Griezmann, Giroud.
Italy: Donnarumma; Di Sciglio, Bonucci, Romagnoli, Darmian; Jorginho, Bonaventura, Politano; Belotti, Insigne, Balotelli.
