The upcoming meeting in Qatar will be the 18th ever between the two teams.
France won eight times, lost three meetings and drew six times against the Poles.
In the World Cup this will be the second meeting, when the first one in 1982 ended with 2:3 Polish.
The last meeting, a friendly match in 2011, ended 0:1 for the reigning world champions.
Two players who were on the field at the time are expected to play again this time - Wojciech Szczesny and Robert Lewandowski.

England - Senegal (Sunday, 21:00)
The African team qualified for the round of 16 for the second time in its history, and will meet the Three Lions team for the first time ever.
In 20 meetings to date in all formats, England have never lost to an African team (14 wins, six draws).
England has met an African representative eight times in the World Cup, and their balance stands at four wins and three draws, with the only meeting between them being a knockout, in the quarter-finals of the 1990 World Cup, ending in a 2:3 victory over Cameroon.
The winner will meet the winner between France and Poland in the quarter-finals.
