Eduardo Camavinga – who did not feature on Thursday – has been released from Real Madrid with a minor thigh problem.

Liverpool's Hugo Ekitike, who scored his first goal for France in the previous match, could start as Mbappe has withdrawn due to injury.

Latest football commentary on Azerbaijan vs France

Azerbaijan continued to sink deeper into crisis on the international stage when it extended its winless streak to 14 matches on Thursday night, when its World Cup dream officially ended after a lackluster performance and 2-0 defeat to Iceland in Baku.

Still hoping to challenge for a top-two finish and a March play-off spot, the visitors fired home in the first half to take all three points away from home, with Fiorentina midfielder Albert Gudmundsson continuing his side's scoring streak.

Having failed to score in their third qualifying match, Azerbaijan are bottom of the group with just one game remaining, six points behind Iceland and Ukraine – who are second and third respectively – meaning Sunday’s hosts already know their fate.

Milli have not won in their last 14 games, including friendly and official matches. Their last victory came in June 2024, when they beat Kazakhstan 3-2 at Haladas Stadion (Hungary).

Ahead of this weekend's clash, Aykhan Abbasov's side are heavy favourites and will be looking to avoid back-to-back defeats against the 2022 World Cup runners-up, who beat them 3-0 at the Parc des Princes in October.

It was no surprise when France secured their place at the 2026 World Cup in North America with a 4-0 win over Ukraine in the capital on Thursday night, with Kylian Mbappe scoring a brilliant double to move closer to breaking the team's scoring record.

The Real Madrid star reached 400 career goals after the match against Ukraine and took his tally for France to 55. At 26, he is just two goals away from Olivier Giroud's record of 57.

France extended their unbeaten run in all competitions to six games (five wins, one draw), moving them up to 13 points in UEFA qualifying Group D – six points ahead of Iceland and Ukraine with one game in hand.

Les Bleus will be aiming to finish the qualifying campaign unbeaten and improve on their away form after a disappointing draw in Iceland on 13 October, despite Nkunku and Mateta both scoring.

Another highlight of this training camp is the return of N'Golo Kante, who impressed in the Saudi Pro League with Al Ittihad. The two-time Premier League winner is keen to add another World Cup title to his collection.
