Bahrain vs. France: 2017 Toulon Tournament Live Stream, Schedule and Prediction

France will be out to finish the 2017 Toulon Tournament on a high on Monday, as they play their final group game against Bahrain.

Les Bleus have endured a rotten competition so far, drawing with Wales in their opening game and losing at the death to the Ivory Coast in their second match. The late goal means France have no chance of progressing to the semi-finals on home soil.

They should feel confident of finishing with a flourish, though. Bahrain are the only team who sit below France in Group B, having lost both of their games 1-0 so far.

Here are the viewing details for the match and a look ahead to what should be an intriguing clash.

Date: Monday, June 5

Time: 6:30 p.m. (BST)/1:30 p.m. (ET)

Preview

Having suffered a disappointing start to their tournament with a draw against Wales, France had the opportunity to haul themselves back into contention for a semi-final spot against the Ivory Coast.

For long spells of the game, they looked like they were going to do exactly that. Vincent Marcel put them ahead five minutes after half-time, with the home side having moved the ball well in the opening period.

However, in the final quarter of the game, the French lost their way, allowing their opponents to establish a foothold and turn this one around. Jean Amani levelled in the 65th minute, and then, with just one minute left on the clock in this 80-minute contest, Kader Toure snatched the winner.

That result ensured France would not progress beyond the group stage of this tournament, meaning all they can hope for in their final outing is a pride-restoring win over Bahrain.

The man to watch in that game is likely to be Marcel again. Football journalist Seb Stafford-Bloor commented on his commanding and goalscoring display in the middle of the park:

Another football journalist, Michiel Jongsma, also noted how well the Nice playmaker did in an otherwise disappointing performance for France:

Three points in this one would potentially be enough to see the host side jump up to second place in the group, as Wales face Ivory Coast in their last game; if the Elephants were to win and France were to follow suit, they could usurp the Welsh on goal difference.

Still, only the highest-ranked second-place team from the three groups keep their tournament chances alive, a status France cannot attain.

They will have enough to finish on a high at least. Bahrain have suffered two losses so far, and while each has been a narrow defeat, they've rarely troubled opponents in the final third. France's youngsters, despite some underperformance in the Toulon tournament, are good enough to get the job done.

Prediction: France 2-0 Bahrain
