Bosnia and Herzegovina and Qatar meet in a crucial FIFA World Cup 26™ Group B encounter with both sides still chasing a place in the knockout stage.
Here's what to look out for at Seattle Stadium.
After battling to a 1-1 draw with Canada in their opener, Bosnia and Herzegovina suffered a 4-1 defeat against Switzerland and currently sit third in Group B on one point. They will qualify if:
Qatar are also on one point after opening their campaign with a 1-1 draw against Switzerland before falling to a heavy 6-0 defeat against Canada.
They will qualify for the Round of 32 as Group B runners-up (and meet the Group A runners-up in Los Angeles on 28 June) if:

Edin Džeko remains the heartbeat of this Bosnia and Herzegovina side. The veteran captain continues to lead by example and scored 7.0 for his Creativity Influence in their last match. Even at 40 years old, he remains the focal point of their attack and is his nation's all-time leading goalscorer.
Ermedin Demirović is another player capable of making the difference. The striker's movement and work rate have caused problems throughout the tournament with the Stuttgart man scoring 5.8 for his Creativity Influence against Switzerland.
For Qatar, Akram Afif remains their most dangerous weapon. The forward has consistently been involved in Qatar's best attacking moments and scored 7.4 for Creativity Influence in their draw with Switzerland.
Edmílson Junior is another man who could have a key role to play in this clash. With Creativity Influence scores of 5.2 and 5.7 in the two matches so far, his wizardry on the ball will be vital.
Bosnia fans have been bringing the colour to this tournament unlike almost anybody else.
