Mbappe-led France eye knockout spot against Iraq in Group I clash

France aim to secure a Round of 32 berth in Group I when they face Iraq in Philadelphia at 5pm ET, coming off a 3-1 win over Senegal in which Mbappe scored twice. Iraq, in their first World Cup since 1986, were beaten 4-1 by Norway and need an upset to have any chance; Opta still shows France as a heavy favorite (about 88.5%), with roughly 8.5% for a draw and 3% for Iraq. Predicted lineups: France – Maignan; Kounde, Saliba, Upamecano, Digne; Rabiot, Kone; Dembele, Olise, Barcola; Mbappe. Iraq – Basil; Hussein Ali, Tahseen, Hashem, Doski; Bayesh, Al-Ammari, Iqbal, Jasim; Hussein, Al-Hamadi.
