After an impressive World Cup preparation run, where they picked up four wins from five friendlies, Tunisia kicked off their quest for global glory on November 22 when they held Denmark to a goalless draw.
However, the Carthage Eagles failed to build on their impressive opening-day performance as they fell to a 1-0 loss against Australia in their second group outing last Saturday.
With their hopes of a knockout-stage appearance now hanging in the balance, Tunisia must claim all three points against the world champions and hope for a favourable result in the other group fixture.

The Carthage Eagles could equal their best-ever points tally in the group stages with a win on Wednesday, a record set in 1978, when they picked up four points from three matches.
France are currently fourth in the latest FIFA World Rankings, 26 places above Tunisia, who are Africaβs third-highest-ranked nation.
Kylian Mbappe has been a standout performer for the reigning champions and the Paris Saint-Germain forward, who has three goals to his name, will certainly be one to keep an eye out for.
