Viviane Asseyi and Amel Majri link-up so nicely down this left-hand side. They create triangles between themselves, moving up the pitch and beating defends as they go, before winning a corner.

It's played short to Majri, but her cross doesn't beat the first defender and Wendie Renard isn't given a chance to head it.

Meanwhile, over in Reims, Norway have taken the lead against South Korea. As it stands, they are finishing runners-up in the group and South Korea are going home.

Femi John Atoyebi: The full backs have to get the ball to Oshoala who’s got pace and trickery to torment the French ladies.

France are having to defend a little at the moment. Amandine Henry mops up another attack down the right before Asisat Oshoala wins a foot race.

That chance will give the Nigeria team confidence and help settle them in these early moments of the game.

The corner is swung in from the right and it's an awkward one for keeper Sarah Bouhaddi. She flaps at it under pressure from Desire Oparanozie and it falls dangerously in front of the goalline.

Thankfully, Amandine Henry is there to hook it clear. Nervy moment!

France start with intensity and Delphine Cascarino charges down the full-back and gives away a throw-in.

Francisca Ordega then goes up the other end and manages to win a corner off Griedge Mbock Bathy are cutting inside from the right.

France harnessed the momentum and the energy from the crowd in the last two games and they won't want to let that slip. It is a big crowd here and they will want to carry that momentum and make it three wins from three.

No Eugenie Le Sommer in the starting XI for France, which will have come as a nice surprise for Nigeria.

She's scored in both of France's matches so far. I expect she will have a run around at some point today though.

And we're off. Can Nigeria cause an upset in Rennes?

Sulaimon Adelekan: The Super Falcons of Nigeria are Africa's best chance of having a representative in the knock out stage. Mathematically a draw is more than enough for the African champions.

BBC Radio 5 Live

Yes, that's right. It's also on the radio. Live commentary kicks off at 20:00 BST.

The first goal will be key. If Nigeria get it, it will quieten the crowd. If France get the first goal they could run riot.

However, I think 4-0 France.

The players are out and the national anthems are getting under way - Nigeria's up first. They walked out to a sea of blue, white and red.

Very hard to spot green in a crowd dominated by French supporters but they are in there!

I think France have done exceptionally well in this tournament. They have got two wins and qualified. In terms of performance there are things to work on but they are gaining momentum.

Barcelona forward Asisat Oshoala is Nigeria's key player. She has pace to burn and used it to good effect to score this cracking solo goal against South Korea on Wednesday.

Nigeria are a threat on the counter-attack and will look to get the ball to Oshoala as often as they can.

France's first win in front of massive crowd in Paris was emphatic. The second win was a bit more stumbling and I think in this game France will want to stamp their authority on the competition again. I think they will want to score a lot of goals.

Lyon teammates Wendie Renard and goalkeeper Sarah Bouhaddi have just given the French players a motivational talk during their warm-up.

The Nigerian team don't need pumping up, they were bouncing, singing and dancing when they came off the bus earlier!

For Nigeria's players, the Women's World Cup is about far more than just football.

The nine-time African champions remain the only nation from that continent to have qualified for every tournament since its introduction in 1991, and yet their players still face barriers at home.

For some in Nigeria, football is not seen as an acceptable occupation for women.

Forwards Asisat Oshoala and Francisca Ordega spoke to BBC Sport about some of the issues they have faced and why the hopes of a continent rests on their shoulders.
