What games are on today?

Spain v Cabo Verde

Cabo Verde are making their World Cup debut later today and will face off against pre-tournament favourites Spain.

La Roja are rightly regarded as the best in the world right now (sorry France fans) and in Lamine Yamal have a future Ballon d'Or winner in their midst.

Will the Barcelona man be fit to start tonight? We'll find out but either way, expect goals, goals and more goals.

Our prediction: Spain 7-0 Cabo Verde

Belgium v Egypt

Seattle is the venue for tonight's clash between Belgium and Egypt with the Red Devils boasting a plethora of world class stars.

Egypt however, come into this encounter with Mohamed Salah captaining and ready to give his all in this, his final World Cup.

Our prediction: Belgium 2-1 Egypt

Saudi Arabia v Uruguay

Saudi Arabia produced one of the biggest shocks in World Cup history last time around when they beat Argentina in Qatar.

The Middles Eastern nation will be hoping to achieve something similar today when they take on Marcelo Bielsa's Uruguay.

Our prediction: Saudi Arabia 1-1 Uruguay

Iran v New Zealand

Politics has been the main talking point for Iran ahead of their World Cup opener but Amir Ghalenoei's side will want to do their talking on the pitch as they take on New Zealand.

In Medhi Taremi, Iran have one of the most experienced strikers at the tournament and a genuine goal threat.

Our prediction: Iran 1-0 New Zealand


Which player should I look out for?

A good pick to be the tournament's top scorer come July, Mikel Oyarzabal is the focal point of Spain's enviable attack.

The Real Sociedad striker bagged 18 goals domestically this term and with the likes of Pedri and Rodri in support, should find himself with plenty of opportunities in front of goal later.

Can you give me one stat to impress my friends?

  1. Belgium have lost just one of their last 15 group matches in the World Cup and you'd have to go back to 1986 to the last time they were defeated in an opening match.
