How to Watch France vs. Italy on TV, Live Stream

The 42nd meeting between historic rivals France and Italy will be staged in the UEFA Nations League this Friday and it’s brimming with narrative.

Zinédine Zidane will be overseeing his third match as leader of Les Bleus, but he must confront old demons to clinch a third successive win. After all, Italy was the opponent for his last ever career match in the 2006 World Cup final, which culminated in him seeing red for that headbutt and France losing the clash on penalties.

The former Real Madrid coach will be desperate for a modicum of revenge, even if nothing can rewrite a bitter final chapter in his legendary career.

Italy is also a nation in transition after reappointing Euro 2020-winning manager Roberto Mancini to help steady the ship. After missing out on a third straight World Cup over the summer, the Azzurri are in dire need of reform—although Monday’s 4–1 thrashing of Türkiye marked a step in the right direction.

Their trip to the Stade de France promises to be another engaging affair, so here’s how to watch it unfold live on TV.
