France host Canada in Bordeaux on Sunday in a final dress rehearsal ahead of their respective tournaments.
Les Blues are rightly one of the favourites for Euro 2024 after narrowly missing out in the World Cup final in Qatar just under two years ago. They will be looking to hit the ground running in their first group game a week on Monday and could use Canada as an opportunity to start going through the gears.
Canada have made real progress over the last few years but are still significant outsiders to win the Copa America. However, with prolific stars like Alphonso Davies and Jonathan David finding success in Europe, Canada now posses a real threat to even the top sides across the world.
France v Canada is available to watch live on Premier Sports.
France v Canada will be played at Stade Matmut-Atlantique and kick-off is at 20:15 BST on Sunday 9th June.
Didier Deschamps' side have only lost twice since their defeat on penalties in the World Cup final back in December 2022, with both of those losses coming to Germany.
Canada have struggled to find any kind of form in their last five outings, recording two wins and three losses. Their most recent game saw them suffer their heaviest defeat of the last five results, falling to the Netherlands 4-0.
France and Canada have only ever locked horns once before, this coming in Mexico '86 where France prevailed 1-0 in the group stage thanks to a Jean-Pierre Papin goal and eventually knocking the North American side out.
