Find out how to watch Italy vs France for free from anywhere in the world as Roberto Mancini and Zinedine Zidane's European heavyweights clash at San Siro, Milan, in the Nations League.
The hosts have gone three games unbeaten after beginning Mancini's second coming with a 2-0 defeat by Belgium. The Azzurri have beaten Turkey home and away, while a 1-1 draw in the reverse fixture against France provided proof that the former Man City boss' methods are beginning to take root. European champions under Mancini in 2021, Italy boast a strong spine topped off by in-form 21-year-old Pio Esposito, who has seven goals in just 13 caps, with Nicolo Barella loading the bullets. This is an acid test of how far they've come since failing to qualify for successive World Cups, with what feels a pivotal game against Belgium up next.
Despite trailing with 13 minutes to go, Zidane's side finally let off the handbrake in the 4-1 victory over Belgium. Goals from Desire Doue, Rayan Cherki and a Michael Olise brace did the damage last time out in October for the 2018 world champions, who welcome back captain Kylian Mbappe from injury for this international window. With Maxence Lacroix, William Saliba and Jules Kounde all absent through injury, Zizou may blood in-form youngsters Adrien Truffert and Jeremy Jacquet to plug the defensive gaps. A win guarantees a quarter-final spot with a game to spare.
