17:30 | FIFA World Cup 26 Live | Netherlands v Sweden (Kick-off 6.00pm). Tony O'Donoghue presents coverage of the Group F match at Houston Stadium in the USA. The Dutch secured their place at this World Cup by finishing top of their qualifying group ahead of Poland, Finland, Malta and Lithuania, winning six of their eight matches and drawing the other two, and scoring 27 goals in the process while conceding just four. Overall, they have appeared at 11 of the previous 22 tournaments to be held and have progressed from the group stage at all nine of the tournaments to include one, and while they are yet to lift the trophy they have made it to the final on three occasions, in 1974, 1978 and 2010. While Sweden have struggled to even qualify for this tournament in the last 30 years, historically speaking they have a good record, reaching the semi-finals on three occasions, which included finishing as runners-up to Brazil when a 17-year-old Pele scored two goals in a 5-2 victory in the final when they served as hosts in 1958. With analysis from Didi Hamann |
| 20:30 | FIFA World Cup 26 Live | Germany v Ivory Coast (Kick-off 9.00pm). Tony O'Donoghue presents coverage of the Group E match at Toronto Stadium in Canada. There has only been one previous encounter between these nations, a 2009 friendly match that ended in a 2-2 draw in Gelsenkirchen, and Les Éléphants will have to improve on their World Cup record against European opposition if they are to stand a chance of claiming a victory here. In four meetings against teams from Europe, they have a record of one win, one draw and two losses, with the sole win coming against Serbia and Montenegro at the 2006 tournament in Germany. While Die Mannschaft have a proud World Cup record overall they have failed to deliver since lifting the trophy in 2014, not even progressing beyond the group stage in both 2018 and 2022 after finishing fourth and third in the group standings respectively.
