World Cup 2018 Preview: Uruguay’s Rock-Solid Defence Against France’s Demolishing Attack

Uruguay vs France – Lineups

Uruguay:

Uruguay will be sweating on the fitness of their two best players.

Hero of the last round Edinson Cavani is a major doubt, while strike partner Luis Suarez is also a fitness concern.

The Barcelona forward is expected to recover in time although Cavani will likely only feature from the bench, if at all.

Cavani’s absense could see youngster Maxi Gomez start or Tabarez may opt to field an extra body in midfield.

Arsenal target Lucas Torreira will start again in the base of midfield following a string of good displays.

Rodrigo Bentancur is one yellow card away from a ban.

Formation: 4-4-2

MusleramLaxalt, Godín, Gimenez, Caceres , Bentancur, Vecino, Torreira, Nandez , Stuani, Suarez

Head Coach: Oscar Tabarez
