France Team News:
- France head coach Didier Deschamps named his squad for the next three games, which consist one friendly game against Bolivia and two UEFA Euro 2020 qualifiers against Turkey and Andorra.
- The Les Bleus are blessed with the world-beating talents and there is only so much room for all of them. Some players had to be left out, with a few of them were never going to be selected, as it seems.
- Once again, the manager has decided to do without long term absentees Karim Benzema and Aymeric Laporte. If the club form is the benchmark for selection, then this aforementioned duo would have been the first name on the sheet. But we all know the relationship between Deschamps and these two players.
- Another surprising exclusion is Alexandre Lacazette. The Arsenal striker hasn’t played for the national team since March 2018. He was on the standby list for the 23 men French squad for the 2018 World Cup in Russia.
- Olivier Giroud meanwhile continues to be on the Deschamps’ wishlist. Though he may not start here after playing in the UEFA Europa League final.
- Bayern Munich duo Lucas Hernandez and Corentin Tolisso are absent due to the injury. Hernandez is recovering from a knee injury he sustained with Atletico Madrid, while Tolisso has been rehabbing the ACL.
Possible ins and out:
- Changes will be made right from the goal as Hugo Lloris will be sitting out the match due to Tottenham participating in the Champions League final. PSG’s Alphonse Areola is the likely candidate to start between the post.
- Centre-back has options with Umtiti, Lenglet and Varane all in the squad. Lenglet has had a breakthrough season with Barcelona, and could partner Varane at the back.
- Lucas Digne should start on the left side of the attack with Benjamin Pavard the likely player to be on the opposite flank.
- Mousa Sissoko is unlikely to play due to Champions League, and the same can be said about Kante.
- T. Ndombele and Matuidi will start the match.
Bolivia squad for the upcoming games:
- Goalkeepers: Saidt Mustafa, Jorge Arauz, Javier Rojas, Carlos Lampe, Ruben Cordano
- Defenders: Luis Haquin, Adrian Jusino, Mario Cuellar, Saul Torres, Marvin Bejarano, Diego Bejarano, Ronny Montero, Roberto Fernandez, Jose Mario Carrasco
- Midfielders: Leonel Justiniano, Samuel Galindo, Juan Ribera, Alejandro Chumacero, Raul Castro, Erwin Saavedra, Jose Luis Vargas, Fernando Saucedo, Diego Wayar, Paul Arano, Ramiro Vaca, Daniel Camacho
- Forwards: Rodrigo Ramallo, Leonardo Vaca, Henry Vaca, Marcelo Martins, Gilbert Alvarez

Bolivia Team News:
- There are no injury concerns for Bolivia ahead of this match. Manager Eduardo Villegas has already announced his 23-man squad for the Copa America and the players for the France match will be selected from this group.
- The squad will be one of the youngest in the 2019 Copa America with the average age of Bolivia’s team 26. The left-back Roberto Fernández is the youngest, with 19, and the oldest is the goalkeeper Carlos Lampe, with 32.
- Only Marvin Bejarano and Marcelo Martins play outside Bolivia and the rest of the squad is domestic-based.
- However, one of the surprising exclusion is of Tarijean midfielder Ramiro Vaca. The 19-year-old has been hailed as one of the brightest talents emerging in the Bolivian football and has played almost all the games for his club this season.
- Other players who could have been in the squad but were left out of the list are: defender Ronny Montero, from ranks of Wilstermann, forward Henry Vaca, of The Strongest, and midfielder Luis José Vargas, of Blooming.
Bolivia possible ins and out:
- Marcelo Martins, Marvin Bejarano, Mario Cuéllar are expected to play the match for Bolivia.
- Of the 23 players, three are goalkeepers, eight are defenders, eight are midfielders and four are attackers.
Stats and facts:
- Bolivia are without a win in the six international matches heading into this match.
- France won two out of two in 2019, beating Iceland 4-0 and Moldova 4-1.
Stars and superstar of this game:
This is a friendly game and manager Didier Deschamps will no doubt be looking to test the overall strength of his squad. A few fringe players will be expecting for the precious minutes to show what they bring to the team.
But Paul Pogba and Kylian Mbappe will be given the run-in here. They are the obvious choices for the captain and vice-captain options.
But the flanks here will be the difference. In that sense, keep both Benjamin Pavard and Lucas Digne in your playing 11. That said, Kingsley Coman is a good option as well for the star player in your Dream11 fantasy football.
FRA vs BOL Dream11 FANTASY TEAM:
Goalkeeper: Areola
Defenders: Haquin, Bejarano, Digne, Varane
Midfielders: Pogba (C), Lemar, Justiniano, Saavedra
Attackers: Griezmann, Moreno
FRA vs BOL Dream11 potential winner:
The world champions France will be too big an opponent for the inexperienced Bolivian squad. A comfortable win for the hosts is our call.
