TEAM NEWS of Argentina:
Lionel Messi and Lionel Scaloni must win one more game in order for Argentina to win the World Cup when they play France in the final on Sunday. They'll confront their hardest resistance of the competition so far yet the young midfield lines up well with Les Blues. Throughout the World Cup, Enzo Fernandez, Rodrigo De Paul, and Alexis Mac Allister have been able to repel opponents and keep Argentina moving forward. The team will have chances to move forward if the midfield can take advantage of Theo Hernandez's high attack potential. More members of the team may have contracted the virus that prevented Dayot Upamecano and Adrien Rabiot from participating in France's victory over Morocco.
TEAM NEWS of France:
Didier Deschamps is aware that Hernandez will be the target of attack during the match, but Hugo Lloris has made big saves in crucial situations throughout the tournament so far. Due to France's ability to dominate possession, Lloris has made ten saves, the majority of which came in the knockout stage. Because the team typically loses the ball in situations that allow for quick transitions, Lloris must remain alert throughout the game because one error could cost France the game.
Argentina vs France HEAD-TO-HEAD Record:

Argentina key players vs France for world cup 2022 final:
Lionel Messi:
This World Cup final is all about one man: Argentina's captain, source of inspiration, and most deadly weapon. Messi, Lionel.
His time has come. The forward for PSG, who has pledged to never play in another World Cup after this, his fifth attempt, it's now or never.
Throughout the tournament, Messi has been devastatingly effective. He and Mbappe are now tied for the Golden Boot with five goals, making the final a straight shootout between the veteran icon and the presumed successor.
Alexis MacAllister:
Alexis MacAllister has been one of the players who has made a significant improvement at this tournament, and Messi alone cannot accomplish this.
The midfielder, who has performed admirably for Brighton in the Premier League and brought his good form to Qatar, serves as a persistent back up for Messi, Alvarez, and co. in the attack.
Enzo Fernandez:
Enzo Fernandez has demonstrated to the world that he is destined for greatness, a true World Cup revelation. The 21-year-old is presently being sought after by Liverpool - and seeing why is clear.
Fernandez had shown up for his public group before the World Cup however fell off the seat in the initial two games. Scaloni decided to start the midfielder against Poland after he scored a magnificent goal, assisted by Messi, against Mexico.
Emi Martinez:
Although his antics have divided Qatari opinion, goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez has been an asset to Argentina.
In their match in the last 16 of the tournament, Australia scored in the final minute to put pressure on the Argentinian defense, but they were stopped: surviving a miraculous Garang Kuol stop in the dying seconds to keep his team in control.
France key players vs Argentina for world cup 2022 final:
One of the most formidable World Cup squads, the French have world-class players at almost every position.
Varane, Upamecano, and Konate are all capable of starting at center back and are competing for the two spots.
Aurelien Tchouameni is a tough midfielder who can also stop attacks and pass the ball around the field.
With Griezmann available to serve in a slightly deeper role, Mbappe, who leads the goalscoring charts with five trikes, is without a doubt their brightest spark on the field in the attack.
Giroud, who has made five appearances and scored four goals, is also performing admirably.
Argentina vs France Final Match Prediction:
While Messi and Kylian Mbappe will lead the way with goals, Alvarez will score the winning goal and lead Argentina to their first World Cup title since 1986. Pick: France 3, Argentina 2
