Is Spain v Saudi Arabia on TV? Channel, kick-off time and how to watch World Cup 2026 match | OneFootball

Spain do not have to win when they take on Saudi Arabia in Atlanta on Sunday, owing to the bloated format at World Cup 2026, but improvements in attack will be a must.

Having been held by Cape Verde in one of the great World Cup shocks on Monday, Luis de la Fuente will be hoping star man Lamine Yamal can contribute more than 19 minutes off the bench as he battles back from a hamstring injury.

Saudi Arabia, meanwhile, battled to a creditable draw against Uruguay in their opener and have no reason to feel overawed having beaten Argentina at the last tournament in Qatar.

When is Spain v Saudi Arabia?

Spain and Saudi Arabia is at 5pm BST on Sunday 21 June (12pm ET) in Atlanta.

How can I watch it?

Viewers in the UK can watch the match free-to-air on BBC1 with coverage starting at 4:30pm BST. It can also be live-streamed on BBC iPlayer.

Team news

Yamal’s level of involvement is the biggest question but Spain could also do with Nico Williams declaring his availability. Apart from that De la Fuente is not expected to make too many tweaks despite questions over Mikel Oyarazabal’s suitability up front.

Saudi Arabia could name an unchanged line-up.

Spain XI: Simon; Llorente, Cubarsi, Laporte, Cucurella; Ruiz, Rodri, Pedri; Yamal, Oyarazabal, Gavi.
