Tournament favorites Spain will look to put things right against Saudi Arabia, after both sides opened their respective FIFA World Cup 2026 campaigns with a point. Lamine Yamal hopes to start for La Roja.
Spain play in Atlanta for the second game in a row but the 75,000-capacity stadium will already hold bad memories after La Roja's goalless draw with World Cup debutants Cape Verde on Monday. Head coach Luis de la Fuente even chucked on star wingers Yamal and Nico Williams in a desperate bid to find a goal, as both players continue their convalescence from recent injuries. The main talking point is now whether the duo will start what feels a must-win game for European champions.
Saudi Arabia warmed up for their toughest test of the group stage by drawing 1-1 with Uruguay in Miami, as Abdulelah Al Amri's first-half goal was canceled out by Maxi Araujo's equalizer 10 minutes from time. The prospect of being heavy underdogs against Spain will not faze the Saudis, whose shock 2-1 victory over eventual champions Argentina in their opening game of the 2022 World Cup will give them belief that they can repeat the trick here. Skipper Salem Al Dawsari scored the winning goal that day and will lead his country against Spain.
