Two European giants face off

Didier Deschamps will be demanding - and very much needing - an improved performance from Les Bleus as they look to get up and running in the Nations League. Belgium pose another daunting test after a home defeat to Italy has set further alarm bells ringing.

France took the lead against the Azzurri inside 13 seconds at the weekend, but ended up going down 3-1 to lose at home to Italy for the first time in 70 years. The result followed a disappointing Euro 2024 and leaves the pressure firmly on the highly decorated head of Deschamps.

Belgium, meanwhile, beat Israel with ease last time out as captain Kevin De Bruyne scored twice. The Red Devils will sense an opportunity for revenge after a narrow last-16 defeat at Euro 2024. Follow the game LIVE below with our dedicated match blog.
