France boss Didier Deschamps has the opportunity to rest some of his key players in their final Group D match against Tunisia, with his side already qualified for the Round of 16.
However, the pressure is on for Tunisia and their prospects are precarious after they followed up a 0-0 draw against Denmark with a 1-0 defeat to Australia.
With Tunisia bottom of the group, they’ll need a win against the reigning champions to stand any chance of leapfrogging Denmark and Australia into second place.
The Sporting News is tracking live scoring updates and highlights for Tunisia vs. France at the 2022 World Cup. Follow below for complete results from the Group D match in Qatar.

Tunisia vs. France lineups, team news
Tunisia midfielder Ellyes Skhiri is likely to play in a protective face mask again as he continues his recovery from a cheekbone fracture.
Jalel Kadri hinted he could use leftback Ali Maaloul and forward Seifeddine Jaziri, adding there are “no miracles” in football, while urging his players to produce their best performance of the group stage.
Tunisia projected lineup (3-4-2-1, right to left): 16. Dahmen (GK) — 6. Bronn, 4. Meriah, 12. Maaloul — 20. Drager 17. Skhiri, 14. Laidouni, 24. Abdi — 23. Sliti, 7. Msakni — 19. Jaziri
France were ravaged by injuries in the build-up to the tournament and coach Didier Deschamps could act to reduce the risk of being deprived of any more players. Les Bleus are set to be confirmed as group winners, unless they lose and Australia win, while overturning a six-goal inferiority in goal difference.
The likes of Raphael Varane and Jules Kounde played against Denmark, but have only just returned from injuries, while key players including Mbappe could be saved for a potential Round-of-16 clash with Argentina.
France projected lineup (4-2-3-1, right to left): 1. Lloris (GK) — 2. Pavard, 17. Saliba, 24. Konate, 22. T. Hernandez — 8. Tchouameni, 25. Camavinga — 20. Coman, 7. Griezmann, 26. Thuram — 9. Giroud
