The World Cup preparation for many national teams continues this weekend with UEFA Nations League headlining a smaller schedule of matches due to the international break.
Sunday’s Denmark – France contest headlines the action. Denmark’s attack is headlined by veteran midfielder Christian Eriksen and striker Martin Braithwaite and both will be eager to rebound following a 2-1 loss to Croatia on Thursday.
France has already suffered one loss to Denmark in this season’s Nations League and will be hoping to extend its current winning run to two matches. Kylian Mbappe and Olivier Giroud both scored in a 2-0 victory over Austria, bumping Les Bleus up to third in Group A.
Nations League matches will also take place for several of Europe’s finest including Netherlands’ showdown with Belgium, Poland’s trip to Wales, and Spain’s hosting of Switzerland.
International friendlies will also be on the docket with Mexico hosting Peru on Saturday in one of its final pre-World Cup exercises. Brazil and Argentina will also be in action on Friday.
The L.A. Galaxy will aim to make up ground in the MLS Western Conference Playoff race against in-state rivals San Jose Earthquakes. The Galaxy and Earthquakes are in action on Saturday at PayPal Park with San Jose aiming to deliver a dagger to the Galaxy’s playoff hopes.
