The top spot in UEFA Nations League group 1 is on the line as leaders France host challengers Italy in La Ville Lumiere on Friday.

Les Bleus have won their first two games of the competition, beating both Belgium and Turkiye by a 1-0 score to snag the maximum six points to begin Zinedine Zidane’s tenure in charge.

Italy had a tough start under returning boss Roberto Mancini, suffering a 2-0 defeat to Belgium, but they rebounded to beat Turkiye 4-1 to keep themselves in contention for the group lead if they can secure an upset on the road here.

The Sporting News looks at the key details ahead of this game, including how to watch the match, kickoff times and the weekly schedule.
