After suffering 4-0 defeat against France in their previous fixture, Andorra will try to put up a brave contest against the World Champions tomorrow. However, Les Bleus are expected to win comfortably against a side struggling at the bottom of Group H of the qualifiers for next year's European Championship.
With UEFA officials confusing Albania's national anthem with Andorra's, the host team coach Deschamps will look forward to smooth pre-match formalities this time around.
Despite several superstars being absent for the game against Albania. France registered a comfortable 4-1 win against Edoardo Raja-helmed XI.
Andorra, who visit Stade France on the back of six straight losses, could be in for a long night at Saint-Denis if Les Blues are in the mood.
Antoine Griezmann, who had a subdued game and failed to convert his penalty-kick joked about his miss by saying:
I don't know [what happened]. I don't know,”
“As I said earlier, maybe it's because my wife didn't watch the game!"
“I was on a good dynamic but we can't score every time. Too bad, I'll have to work on it."
Barcelona's new signing also provided his assessment of France's performance against Albania amid injuries to various regular starters. Griezmann said:
"We were missing important players, whether on the field or in the locker room. The players who played in their place did it very well."
“We are on the right track and it shows that we are a group. We had a good game. We can only regret the goal we conceded at the end.”
