France will endeavour to preserve their perfect record in their UEFA Euro 2024 qualification campaign when they welcome Gibraltar to Allianz Riviera in Nice on Saturday night.
Following a 100% six-game qualification performance for the Euro 2024, Les Bleus have already secured their place in the tournament finals in Germany next year.
Gibraltar, meanwhile, can no longer qualify for the finals and are only playing for pride at the moment. They sit rock-bottom in the Group B standings, with zero wins and goals scored.
The visitors head into Saturday's clash off the back of a 4-0 hammering at the hands of Republic of Ireland during the October international break.
Here, GOAL brings you everything you need to know about how to watch, including TV channel, streaming details and more.
