Arroyo in for Caicedo

Ecuador have made one change from the side that beat Honduras last Friday for today's World Cup clash against France at the Maracana, with Michael Arroyo coming in for Felipe Caicedo.

Enner Valencia, Juan Carlos Paredes, Jefferson Montero and Antonio Valencia are all one booking away from a ban.

Mamadou Sakho limped out of France's win over Switzerland last week with a thigh problem but makes the starting XI, while fellow defender Raphael Varane is suffering from gastroenteritis and is omitted from the squad.

Yohan Cabaye is also absent as he serves a one-match ban for collecting two yellow cards in Les Bleus' first two games.

Ecuador: Dominguez, Paredes, Ayovi, Minda, Guagua, Erazo, A Valencia, Noboa, E Valencia, Arroyo, Montero

France: Lloris, Sakho, Benzema, Griezmann, Matuidi, Sagna, Digne, Sissoko, Pogba, Koscielny, Schneiderlin
