France Predicted Starting XI Against Iraq: World Cup Group Stage Matchup
France is set to face Iraq in Philadelphia on Monday as they continue their 2026 World Cup campaign. Following a 3-1 win over Senegal in their opening game, Les Bleus are confident of a positive result and a confirmed passage to the knockout rounds.
Kylian Mbappé scored twice, while Michael Olise played a key role in the central position, as France emerged victorious after a goalless first half. A win or draw against Iraq will guarantee France's place in the last 32.
The predicted lineup for France includes Mike Maignan as goalkeeper, Jules Koundé as right back, and Dayot Upamecano and William Saliba as center backs. Lucas Digne may replace Théo Hernandez as left back, while Adrien Rabiot and Manu Koné are expected to start in central midfield.
Ousmane Dembélé may be moved to the right wing to accommodate Olise in the central position, with Bradley Barcola potentially starting on the left wing. Mbappé, who scored a double against Senegal, will lead the attack, seeking to add to his 14 World Cup goals.
