Rabot, première

With a record of four wins in as many matches, the Tricolores are well on their way to qualifying, and will have to definitively validate their ticket for Euro 2025 on the occasion of these two matches. Still injured, Marine Johannès will not be operational for the next gathering. In agreement with the National Technical Director and the staff of the French Women's Team, Gabby Williams will also be absent for these two matches (compelling personal reasons).

On the other hand, two BLMA players have been called up, namely playmaker Romane Berniès (31 years old, 57 caps) and winger Garance Rabot (22 years old). This is the first time that the latter has been called up to Les Bleus, a reward for her good start to the season with Les Gazelles.
