France and Sweden square off in the Round of 32 that sees the 2022 finalists and heavy favorites against a side aiming to prove their group-stage inconsistency was a blip rather than a sign of things to come.
Les Bleus were the most dominant side of the group stage, rolling through Group I with wins over Senegal (3-1), Iraq (3-0) and Norway (4-1). Kylian Mbappe and Ousmane Dembele are both tied for second in the Golden Boot race with four goals apiece, sitting just behind Lionel Messi and level with Vinicius Junior and Erling Haaland.
