Only a handful of sides have arrived at this year's tournament with superior world ranking placements than France - but they will be looking to break some unwanted history this time around too.
They have never got past the quarter-final stage, representing a major stumbling block - but with arguably some of the game's biggest talents among their ranks, could this year finally be their moment?

A year on from the men's team tasting Euro 2020 glory on English soil, can the women repeat the feat to make it a clean sweep?
Italy will certainly be emboldened by their previous exploits too, having twice finished as runners-up, in 1993 and 1997.
