What to Expect
Carlo Ancelotti’s squad comes into this match buoyed by their recent 2-0 victory over Senegal in London, a performance that garnered praise from both fans and media. However, the coach has indicated that he will implement some changes due to player fatigue.
The only confirmed change is the absence of Gabriel Magalhães, who has been ruled out due to a thigh injury. Éder Militão will step in to bolster the defense, with Wesley set to start as the right-back.
Meanwhile, Tunisia is brimming with confidence, having already secured their spot in the 2026 World Cup with an impressive undefeated qualifying campaign (9 wins and 1 draw).
