A decisive duel in Group F

Kick-off is set for Friday, June 26 at 01:00 French time, at AT&T Stadium in Arlington. However, this fixture is much more than just a group stage finale. Unbeaten since the start of the tournament, Japan heads into this match with even greater confidence after their draw against the Netherlands and their emphatic win over Tunisia.

Sweden, meanwhile, remains under pressure. After thrashing Tunisia, they collapsed against the Oranje and now must avoid another setback. Everything points to a tense, occasionally cagey contest, but one that is crucial for two teams determined to extend their World Cup journey into the round of 16.
