Netherlands vs France - Qualifications FIFA 2018
Amsterdam Arena, Amsterdam, Netherlands
Monday, 10 October 2016 - 20:45 CET
Following a 1-1 draw at Sweden back in September, Netherlands team won 4-1 at
home against Belarus last time out, with 24-year-old Quincy Promes
scoring a brace. Their win ended a shocking run of five losses in a row
at home for them, and they have only won four of their last 13 on home
turf, losing six of them.
Klaas-Jan Huntelaar has missed out on the squad, but Quincy Promes and Vincent Janssen made up for his absence in midweek. Davy Klaassen, Wesley Sneijder and Quncy Promes are expected to start in the offensive midfielders positions. Goalkeeper Jasper Cillessen has injured an ankle in training and is set to be replaced by Michel Vorm. Arjen Robben has been also ruled out through injury.

France team recorded a comfortable 4-1 home win against Bulgaria as Kevin
Gameiro got two and Antoine Griezmann and Dimitri Payet bagged a goal
apiece. That result followed a disappointing draw at Belarus last month
and a 3-1 defeat of Italy in an International Friendly. Sagna has been ruled out after suffering a hamstring injury last time
out and will be replaced by Djibril Sidibe. This could be Didier
Deschamps' only change to his 4-2-3-1 formation, in which Gameiro will
retain his lone forward berth and Payet, Griezmann and Moussa Sissoko
will start as offensive midfielders.
The last meeting between these two sides came in March as a memorial match for Johan Cruyff with France coming out on top 3-2 in Amsterdam thanks to a last minute goal by Blaise Matuidi after Netherlands had come back from 2-0 down.
