France is looking every much like a potential world champion, with Didier Deschamps's exceptional side potentially becoming just the third team in World Cup history to reach three successive finals.
That said, we shouldn't get too ahead of ourselves, particularly with Spain delivering its strongest performance of the tournament so far in its round of 32 win over Austria.
After dispatching Sweden with a clinical dominance that has become their trademark, Paraguay stands as the next obstacle for Les Bleus. Many had anticipated a blockbuster showdown with Germany at this point, but Julian Nagelsmann's lackluster side was stunned by the determined South Americans—a result that ultimately cost Nagelsmann his position.
It would take a monumental shock for Gustavo Alfaro's squad to go further and overcome France's dynamic attack, but nothing is guaranteed at this stage of the tournament.
Here's everything you need to know about watching Saturday's round of 16 fixture.
