France play their final World Cup warm-up match tonight and will be looking for a morale-boosting win against Northern Ireland in Lille.
Les Bleus are second favourites for glory in North America but surprisingly lost at home to Ivory Coast in a friendly last week.
So boss Didier Deschamps will demand a response from his players against the Irish before they fly across the Atlantic.
France vs Northern Ireland top betting tips
Northern Ireland are usually pretty well drilled but they have been thrashed 5-1 by both Spain and Sweden in friendlies over the last two years.
A lot will depend on how seriously France take the game but Bet365 make Deschamps' side 1/8 hot favourites and even adding on over 3.5 goals only boosts the odds to 5/4.
France's PSG contingent didn't feature much against Ivory Coast, with Warren Zaire-Emery and Bradley Barcola getting a combined 13 minutes while the others sat on the bench.
They might get more of a run-out tonight and Michael O'Neill's men will have a tough time keeping the French at bay.
Sunderland's Trai Hume is in for a busy night if he starts at full-back and looks good at 11/10 with Bet365 to commit two or more fouls.
Netherlands vs Uzbekistan
The Netherlands are another European big gun looking to bounce back from a surprise defeat when they take on Uzbekistan in their last World Cup tune-up.
The Dutch lost 1-0 at home to Algeria last week and that will be a concern, given they need to face Tunisia in a tough World Cup group that also contains Sweden and Japan.
Ronald Koeman's side are being talked up as dark horses and they will want to justify that hype by putting on a better show tonight.
Uzbekistan are also gearing up the finals and few people will give them a chance against Portugal, Colombia and DR Congo this summer.
The minnows are 17/2 outsiders tonight, with the Netherlands just 27/100, and it's hard to disagree with the odds given Uzbekistan have won just two of their last six games.
Canada beat them 2-0 last week so I fancy a Dutch win to nil tonight, which pays a decent 11/10 at Bet365.
Mauritania vs Niger
It's slim pickings elsewhere today but there's an international friendly between Mauritania and Niger to give us a third game to focus on.
Niger missed out on World Cup qualification but gave it a good shot, finishing second in their group behind giants Morocco.
They signed off with a run of three successive wins and now take on a Mauritania side who could only finish fifth in their own World Cup section.
So the 13/5 on offer at Bet365 for a Niger win tonight could be worth a punt, although a lot will depend on how strong a team each manager picks.
