FRANCE manager Aime Jacquet has gambled on a three pronged attack against England in the Tournoi de France in Montpellier tonight, with his side struggling to find the back of the net.
The French have scored just five goals in their last five games and will have to do better against Glenn Hoddle's side to have a chance of winning the Tournoi de France competition.
Espanol's Nicholas Ouedec, who has scored once in six internationals, is called up to renew his under 21 partnership with Christophe Dugarry of AC Milan. And Marc Keller, who equalised against Brazil after coming on as a substitute, gets his first full start.
England's Paul Scholes is likely to miss his chance to build on his sensational international introduction. The 22 year old Manchester United player was pencil led in to follow up his goalscoring full debut against Italy by starting tonight.
But a tightening hamstring forced him out of training last night and Hoddle has to rethink his plans as he seeks to complete a historic week.
Following England's first win in Poland for 31 years and their first over Italy for 20 years, they are seeking their first on French soil for 48 years.
