Argentina face Poland in a battle of Group C's top two sides but neither are guaranteed to qualify for the 2022 World Cup knockout stage.

The Albiceleste bounced back from their opening match defeat to Saudi Arabia with a Lionel Messi-inspired victory over Mexico on Saturday, and they will look to the Paris Saint-Germain attacker to fire them to glory here.

Poland's Robert Lewandowski scored his first World Cup goal in a 2-0 defeat of Saudi Arabia and he will want to help his side qualify as group winners.

Here's how to watch as Argentina attempts to avoid exiting the World Cup at the group stage for the first time since 2002.
