France will look to secure top spot in Pool A as they face Italy at the Rugby World Cup.<\/p>\n

New Zealand\u2019s bonus-point victory over Uruguay has taken the All Blacks above France in the pool, but a win of any kind, or two bonus points, would be enough for the hosts to advance as pool winners. <\/p>\n

Italy\u2019s hopes, meanwhile, rest on an upset victory over their Six Nations rivals after their thrashing against New Zealand last week.<\/p>\n

Kieran Crowley\u2019s side will be desperate to give a better account of themselves against a side they pushed close during the Six Nations earlier this year.<\/p>\n

Team news<\/strong><\/p>\n

France are without captain Antoine Dupont, though the noises are encouraging over the scrum half\u2019s potential involvment as soon as quarter-final weekend. In his absence here, it is Dupont\u2019s regular deputy Maxime Lucu at nine, while Charles Ollivon captains the side from the back row, where Gregory Alldritt is fit enough to make a return.<\/p>\n

Hooker Julien Marchand remains absent so Peato Mauvaka continues in what looks like a first-choice French side, with 20-year-old breakthrough star Louis Bielle-Biarrey backed again on the wing ahead of Gabin Villiere. <\/p>\n

It\u2019s an all-new front row for Italy, with an injury ruling out Danilo Fischetti, Giacomo Nicotera recovering from a concussion and Marco Riccioni dropped to the bench. Simone Ferrari, Hame Faiva and Pietro Ceccarelli instead combine, with Niccolo Cannone brought back into the starting tight five.<\/p>\n

There\u2019s a reshuffle behind the scrum, with playmakers Tommaso Allan and Paolo Garbisi arranged, as they were against Uruguay, at ten and 12 and Ange Capuozzo at full-back. Pierre Bruno starts on the wing while Kieran Crowley opts for a five\/three forwards-to-backs bench split. <\/p>\n
