Dream11 FRA vs TUR: Euro 2020 Qualifiers predictions and team news

France is set to take on Turkey in a Group H top-of-the-table clash of the Euro 2020 Qualifiers on Tuesday, 15th October (12.15 AM IST) at the Stade de France Stadium in Saint Denis. The world champions are level on points with Turkey after seven games of the qualifiers as both have won six games each respectively. Interestingly, France's only loss in the qualifiers came against Turkey, way back in June. Since then, the Les Bleus have gone on to score twelve goals in their last four games. Turkey, on the other hand, followed up the win over France in June, with a narrow 1-2 defeat against Iceland.

Either side could book their spot in the Euro 2020 Championship with a win in this fixture. France have also registered wins in their last 7 games at the venue. Didier Deschamps will have to do without the services of Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba for this fixture. The former Juventus midfielder misses out, having suffered from a foot injury while on club duty. This is expected to be a thrilling clash and here is our take on both teams along with the Dream11 predicted line-up.

Pogba and Laporte miss out

France have a remarkable 90% pass completion rate, which is the highest by any team in the Euro 2020 qualifiers so far. However, for the match against Turkey, they will have to do without their star player and Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba, who is reportedly in Dubai in an attempt to recover from his toe injury much faster than expected. Manchester City centre-back Aymeric Laporte also misses out and will face a delay in his international debut, having picked up a knee injury in the champions' Premier League game against Brighton and Hove Albion.

Otherwise, France will have goalkeeper Steve Mandanda in the starting XI once again following a good outing against Iceland, but Deschamps will also have the option of fielding on-loan Real Madrid goalkeeper Alphonse Areola as well. With Kingsley Coman, Olivier Giroud and Barcelona's star signing Antoine Griezmann as forwards, Turkey is still expected to have a tough time repeating the result from their last meeting with the Les Bleus.

Dream 11 line-up

Mandanda; Hernandez, Varane, Söyüncü; Coman, Matuidi, Tolisso, Sissoko, Çalhanoğlu; Tosun, Enes Ünal
