Surprised by Ukraine on Wednesday (1-1), the France team cannot afford a second quack in Kazakhstan this Sunday to launch its qualifications for the 2022 World Cup.
The reigning world champions must assert their status, on the lawn of an opponent they have never faced.
Didier Deschamps is largely turning for this meeting.
Ousmane Dembélé, Anthony Martial and Tanguy Ndombele are holders, like Thomas Lemar and Paul Pogba.
Kylian Mbappé starts on the bench.
