As the 2022 World Cup group stages come to an end, Spain will be aiming to secure a last-16 spot in their final Group E clash against Japan.
La Roja were less than 10 minutes away from sealing a knockout place with a game to spare, as Germany battled back to snatch a 1-1 draw in their second group match.
Spain are aiming to build on the positive momentum of reaching the semifinals of Euro 2020, but they have not made it past the World Cup last 16 since winning the trophy in 2010.
Luis Enrique's side remain on top of Group E, and anything less than a heavy defeat will see them into the next phase, but Japan's fate could be decided by the outcome of Costa Rica vs Germany.
Here's how you can watch all the action in the U.K.
