Prediction: 2-1
Canada
After rolling over Luxembourg (3-0), France will look to give fans yet another reason to celebrate when they face Canada in their last warm-up game. Les Tricolores are seen as hot favourites to win Sunday’s clash, but the Canucks should not be written off just yet. Inter defender Benjamin Pavard is pushing for a start as well as Olivier Giroud. Real Madrid ace Eduardo Camavinga should be recalled to the starting XI as well.
Canada, on the other hand, have not been in action since March when they defeated Trinidad & Tobago. Bayern Munich ace Alphonso Davies made the cut as well as Kyle Larin and Jonathan David, but given the number of high-profile players in Didier Deschamps’ team, we predict that the visitors are going to return home with their hands empty. Back in 1986 France defeated Canada 1-0 at the FIFA World Cup in Mexico.

Kylian Mbappe is a French footballer who plays for Paris Saint-Germain as a forward. The French rising star began his youth career at AS Bondy and in 2013 he moved to AS Monaco.

Canada national football team played their first official match back in 1924 when they suffered a 3-2 loss to Australia in Brisbane. The following year the two teams faced each other one in Adelaide, with the Canadians managing to get their revenge on the Socceroos. The Canucks had several unsuccessful attempts to make it to the World Cup finals, but in 1986 they finally booked their place at the showpiece tournament.
Canada faced France in their opener, with Jean-Pierre Papin scoring the winner for les Tricolores in the dying minutes of the match. The Canadians were beaten by Hungary and USSR in the next two group games as well and, as a result, they failed to advance to the knockout stages.
