6' France have settled down and are starting to take control of the game, pinning Ukraine back into their own third. 

3' Yarmolenko gets right underneath the ball as he swipes at his shot from distance, sending it high and wide.

1' We're underway in Kiev!

These two sides last met in March, drawing 1-1 at the Stade de France as Griezmann's opening goal was cancelled out by Sydorchuk, who starts on the bench tonight.

Intriguingly, of France's four World Cup qualifying fixtures so far, Les Bleus have drawn both of their matches on home soil, but have won both away games.

France boss Didier Deschamps makes the same number of changes after the disappointing 1-1 draw with Bosnia and Herzegovina in midweek, bringing Dubois, Tchouameni, Rabiot, Coman and Martial into the side. Veretout and Benzema drop to the bench, Thomas Lemar and Kylian Mbappe are out injured and Jules Kounde is suspended after his sending-off last time out.

Ukraine head coach Oleksandr Petrakov keeps just six of the starting 11 that drew 2-2 with Kazakhstan last time out. Pyatov, Matvyenko, Zabarnyi, Mykolenko, Yarmolenko and Yaremchuk keep their spots amidst five changes, with Oleksandr Zinchenko a notable absentee through suspension.

France substitutes: Matteo Guendouzi, Raphael Varane, Karim Benzema, Mike Maignan, Moussa Diaby, Theo Hernandez, Steve Mandanda, Clement Lenglet, Jordan Veretout, Nordi Mukiele.

France (4-2-3-1): Hugo Lloris; Leo Dubois, Kurt Zouma, Presnel Kimpembe, Lucas Digne; Aurelien Tchouameni, Paul Pogba; Kingsley Coman, Antoine Griezmann, Adrien Rabiot; Anthony Martial.
