France and Poland will do battle in what is expected to be an entertaining World Cup last 16 clash at the Al Thumama Stadium in Doha on Sunday evening.
The French side will come into this fixture after they finished as Group D leaders despite slumping to a defeat to Tunisia. It was a completely revamped team, so not too much should be read into that result.
Poland progressed to the round of 16 by the skin of their teeth. Only goal difference saw them escape with Mexico left to lick their wounds.
In the last five meetings between the two teams, Poland has the upper hand over France after they won three out of the last five fixtures, with France only winning two of those matches.
Didier Deschamps added Lucas Hernandez to his long list of injured players but the team has a settled look to it now. Poland boss Czeslaw Michniewicz has no injuries or suspensions to report.
Kylian Mbappe will look to fire his side into the next round of the competition as he has already contributed to four goals during the group stages, including three goals and registering one assist in the process.
Robert Lewandowski will look to find his form at the World Cup, having contributed to two goals in three matches, with one goal and an assist, both coming in the same match.
