Saudi ArabiavsUruguay

This match is one of the 72 group-stage fixtures of the 2026 FIFA World Cup, pitting two of the four teams in Group H against each other. Every group plays six matches over roughly two weeks, with the top two finishers in each of the 12 groups advancing directly to the Round of 32 — where the knockout bracket begins. The eight best third-placed teams across all groups also progress, so even a third-place finish can be enough to keep a campaign alive.

Saudi Arabia produced one of the greatest World Cup upsets in history when they defeated Argentina 2-1 in the opening match of the 2022 tournament, a result that sent shockwaves through the football world. Uruguay, the first-ever World Cup winners, head to the 2026 tournament as a team that consistently punches above its weight on the international stage.

Saudi Arabia: Saudi Arabia have appeared at six World Cups: 1994, 1998, 2002, 2006, 2018, and 2022. Uruguay: Uruguay won the inaugural World Cup in 1930 as hosts, defeating Argentina in the final, and won their second title in 1950 in Brazil with the famous 'Maracanazo' victory in the decisive match.

The match is scheduled at Miami Stadium in Miami Gardens, United States. Kickoff is scheduled for Monday, June 15, 2026 at 10:00 PM (18:00 ET).
