Henry injured



But the absence of Henry, who injured stomach and groin muscles on March 7 during Arsenal's 1-1 draw with PSV Eindhoven in the Champions League, is a massive blow for France.

"There is no like-for-like replacement," Domenech said. "I can't say right now whether we'll play with one or two center forwards."

France is tied with Scotland at the top of Group B with nine points each, ahead of World Cup champion Italy.

Although Lithuania has only four points and is in fifth place, Domenech wants a win.

"For the time being, this is our final," Domenech said. "We are playing for qualification for the Euros. It's an important match.

"To qualify, you have to win, and to win you need this spirit," Domenech added. "Qualification won't be easy. We have to turn the page on the World Cup final."
