Italy vs. France lineups, team news

Moise Kean‘s stop-start international career could get another shot at lift-off if Luciano Spalletti opts to start the in-form Fiorentina striker, who has eight goals in 11 Serie A matches this season and notched a hat-trick against Hellas Verona last weekend.

Torino midfielder Samuele Ricci was ruled out for this international break with an injury and Italy were not as fluent in his absence against Belgium. Manuel Locatelli has not been flavour of the month under Spalletti so far but could get the nod over Nicolo Rovella

Italy predicted XI (3-4-2-1, right to left): Donnarumma (GK) — Di Lorenzo, Buongiorno, Bastoni —Cambiaso, Frattesi, Locatelli, Dimarco — Tonali, Barella — Kean

Injured: Calafiori, Ricci, Scamacca, Scalvini
Suspended: —

France boss Didier Deschamps will once again look to reconfigure his attack without the absent Kylian Mbappe. It feels like a coin toss between Randal Kolo Muani and Marcus Thuram over who will start at centre-forward. Bradley Barcola and Michael Olise will support from the flanks.

Inter star Thuram will feature at his home ground, something he has in common with AC Milan duo Mike Maignan and Theo Hernandez.

France predicted XI (4-2-3-1 right to left): Maignan (GK) — Kounde, Konate, Saliba, Hernandez — Kante, Rabiot — Olise, Zaire-Emery, Barcola — Thuram 

Injured: Fofana, Dembele, Bade, Tchouameni

Italy vs. France prediction

In the previous UEFA Nations League match between the two European powerhouses in September, Italy ran away a 3-1 winner.

Players will be keen on injury prevention since both teams are already through to the next round of the competition.

There is a good chance the match may end in a draw, but Italy are the team more likely to pick up three points if there is a result at the San Siro.

Prediction: Italy 1-0 France
