France take on Republic of Ireland in Group B at the Parc des Princes this evening hoping to maintain their 100% winning record in European qualifying so far. <\/p>\n
The last time the two sides faced off against each other in March 2023, France earned a slender 1-0 victory over an impressive Ireland at the Aviva Stadium. A brilliant goal from Benjamin Pavard was needed to secure the three points in an outing that proved to be more difficult than Didier Deschamps would have been expecting. <\/p>\n
Le Blues won their last outing, beating Greece 1-0 at the Stade de France thanks to a 55th minute penalty from Kylian Mbappe with Ireland also heading into the match in solid form. They won their last European Qualifier, beating Gibraltar 3-0 at home with goals from Michael Johnston, Evan Ferguson and Adam Idah sealing the victory.
