Marcoussis - French coach Jacques Brunel named on Tuesday an unchanged line-up for their Six Nations fixture away to Ireland.
For Sunday's clash Brunel keeps faith with the team that beat Scotland 27-10 in their last outing on February 23 and also recalls en bloc the same replacements for the difficult trip to Dublin.
The win against Scotland boosted French morale following a 24-19 defeat in their opening Six Nations match against Wales and the 44-8 hammering by England at Twickenham.
The line-up includes 19-year-old Romain Ntamack, who retains his place after being chosen ahead of the experienced Camille Lopez at flyhalf following the England debacle.
"It seems pretty logical (to recall the team) after their performance against Scotland, which was quite satisfactory after the England disappointment," said Brunel.
Ntamack's youthful Toulouse club partner Antoine Dupont will start again at scrumhalf, meaning the halfback partnership has a combined age of just 41 years.
