Saudi Arabia and Uruguay are in action, with Spain and Cabo Verde making up the remainder of the group.
Here's everything you need to look out for in the 15th game of the tournament.
Georgios Donis' Saudi Arabia are in action against Marcelo Bielsa's Uruguay in Miami.
Saudi Arabia will be hoping to kick off their tournament with a win as they look to make it out of the group for the first time since 1994, when they reached the round of 16.
Uruguay, on the other hand, are heading into their fifth consecutive World Cup™, and will hope to improve on their group stage finish from 2022.

Despite an underwhelming season with Real Madrid, Federico Valverde remains one of Uruguay's most integral players.
He is certainly a man for the big occasion and is part of his nation's leadership group.
If Uruguay are to have a successful tournament, he will need to produce the numbers alongside goal-threat Darwin Núñez.
For Saudi Arabia, defender Saud Abdulhamid was part of the Lens squad that won the French Cup last season, while also pushing PSG all the way in the Ligue 1 title race.
The 26-year-old played every minute of Saudi Arabia's 2022 World Cup™ campaign so will undoubtedly remain one of the first names on the teamsheet alongside captain Mohamed Kanno.
This is what it's all about for Uruguay and their fans.
