France and Belgium both go into the Nations League match on the back of positive results when they meet in Brussels on Monday.
Despite the absence of Kylian Mbappe, France cruised to a 4-1 win against Israel in Budapest, while Belgium came back from two goals behind to secure a draw against Italy.
When the two teams met in the summer, France knocked Belgium out of the Euros courtesy of a solitary own goal from Jan Vertonghen.
When the two teams met in last month’s Nations League, France secured a comfortable 2-0 win, but the home side will be looking to improve on home soil.
