France ensured they’ll be one of the 48 nations vying to conquer the World Cup in North America next summer.

The 2018 world champions were a penalty shootout away from becoming the first country to retain the FIFA World Cup since 1962 in 2022, and they’ll rank among the favorites to triumph at next summer’s tournament.

Didier Deschamps’s side have been characteristically unspectacular during the qualifying process, but an impressive 4–0 win over Ukraine on Thursday meant they took an unassailable six-point lead at the top of Group D with just one matchday remaining. All of the drama in their group on Sunday will revolve around Iceland’s matchup with Ukraine, which will decide who sneaks into the playoffs.

Les Bleus are facing Azerbaijan for just the fourth time since the Soviet Union’s dissolution, having prevailed 3–0 in the reverse fixture last month. Sunday’s hosts will not be heading to their first World Cup next summer.

Here’s how you can watch France’s upcoming bout with Azerbaijan on TV and live stream.
