Authorities will deploy a security operation on the Champs-Élysées on Tuesday night for the 2026 World Cup fixtures France v Senegal at 21:00 and Argentina v Algeria at 03:00, following violence around the PSG v Arsenal Champions League final in late May.

According to L'Équipe, two CRS companies will be on duty for France v Senegal, with mobile resources available. The Brav-M motorised unit could be activated to support officers if trouble arises, and a further CRS company is due on the avenue at around 04:00 for Argentina v Algeria.
