KYLIAN MBAPPE and Antoine Griezmann have been benched for France’s final World Cup group game.
Les Bleus will secure top spot in Group C if they avoid defeat to bottom-place side Tunisia.
Manager Didier Deschamps has rang the changes as a result, with Mbappe and Griezmann rested.
There are surprises in defence with Real Madrid star Eduardo Camavinga featuring at left-back.
The youngster is a central midfielder but has played as a left-back in training following the injury to Lucas Hernandez in France’s opening game against Australia.
And Monaco’s Axel Disasi, naturally a centre-back, starts at right-back.
Manchester United star Raphael Varane and Ibrahima Konate maintain their place in the heart of defence – with Real Madrid’s Aurelien Tchouameni the only other player to keep his place.
Hugo Lloris has been replaced by Steve Mandanda while Youssouf Fofana comes in for Adrien Rabiot.
Marseille midfielder Jordan Veretout has been given the chance to stake a claim in the side in the absence of Griezmann.
There are plenty of shocks in attack with France’s injury list seeing former Arsenal star Matteo Guendouzi taking the place of Ousmane Dembele, who has been rested.

Olivier Giroud is also on the bench with Eintracht Frankfurt striker Randal Kolo Muani winning his third cap.
If France win the group they could play Argentina, Poland or Saudi Arabia in the second round.
It is possible they will then meet England in the quarter-final if the Three Lions overcome Senegal.
