Starting line-ups for the crucial World Cup Quarter-Finals clash between Brazil and France. Ze Roberto is starting for Brazil, while Robinho and Adriano were left on the bench, as is the case for Manchester United's Luis Saha and Mikael Silvestre.

Defending World Cup champions Brazil face France in the last quarter-final match of the World Cup Finals in Frankfurt on Saturday evening, with the winner meeting Portugal in the semi-finals.

The last time the two sides met in a World Cup tournament, was in the final of the 1998 World Cup, which was hosted by France. The history resembles the match between England and Portugal, where England lost to Portugal after a penalty shootout during the Euro 2004 tournament.
