a frightening amount of talent at their disposal

The 1998 World Cup Winners will be eyeing nothing but winning the World Cup. On paper, Les Bleus has the most balanced side among all 32 nations.

Their star-studded frontline can send shivers down the spine of any defence in the world. Spearheaded by Atleti's Antoine Griezmann, France can emerge as the top scoring country in the World Cup. Apart from him, there are many big names to follow.

Paris Saint-Germain's Kylian Mbappe is one of the significant names in their attack. The teen sensation has been compared to Brazilian Ronaldo already. He will be eager to showcase his set of skills when the biggest stage arrives. Mbappe was recently hacked down by an ugly challenge during training and is awaiting test results to know what the outcome is. Fingers crossed.

Olivier Giroud, who recently secured a move from Arsenal to Chelsea, is also among goals of late. Manchester United's Paul Pogba is another such name who can score a handful of goals along with Barcelona's Ousmane Dembele.

Lyon's Nabil Fekir and Monaco's Thomas Lemar can also chip in from the bench and etch their names on the scoresheet if Didier Deschamps gives them chance off the bench.
