Argentina vs Saudi Arabia - Group C

Argentina will begin their World Cup campaign against Saudi Arabia at the Lusail Stadium on Tuesday, November 22 with kick-off at 10:00.

In their World Cup qualifiers, Argentina finished second in the CONMEBOL standings, only behind Brazil after going undefeated against their South American competition.

Saudi Arabia topped their qualification group over countries like Japan, Australia and Oman with 23 points, the second-highest amount in the AFC qualification stage behind Iran (25).

The game will be shown on ITV 1 in England and STV in Scotland, as well as ITV X (formerly ITV Hub) and the STV Player. You can watch highlights from the Lusail Stadium on ITV X. Highlights will also be available on ITV's YouTube channel shortly after the game ends.

Denmark vs Tunisia - Group D

Denmark will kick-off Group D off with their match against Tunisia, as that game starts at 13:00 in the Education City Stadium.

The Danish will want to replicate their performance during last year's Euros tournament where they reached the semi-finals before losing to England - they topped their qualifying group ahead of Scotland, Israel and Austria.

Tunisia held Mali off in their CAF (Confederation of African Football) qualifier third-round match after winning the first leg 1-0 after a Moussa Sissoko own goal.

The game will be shown on ITV 1 in England and STV in Scotland, as well as ITV X (formerly ITV Hub) and the STV Player. You can watch highlights from the Education City Stadium on ITV X. Highlights will also be available on ITV's YouTube channel shortly after the game ends.

Mexico vs Poland - Group C

Mexico have been knocked out in the Round of 16 in every one of the last seven World Cups so they'll hope to get off to a good start against Poland.

Mexico finished joint-top in their CONCACAF qualifying section, level on points with Canada and above the United States and Costa Rica, who only reached the group stage through a playoff match.

Poland finished behind England in their World Cup qualifying stage and had to beat Sweden to reach the group stage of the tournament after being given a bye to the playoff final following Russia's invasion of Ukraine.

The match will be shown on BBC One with kick-off at 16:00, and will also be shown on the BBC iPlayer and the BBC Sport Website with highlights on the BBC Sport YouTube channel.

France vs Australia - Group D

The reigning world champions France will play host to Australia at the Al Janoub Stadium in a rematch of their group stage match in the 2018 World Cup which the French won 2-1.

Despite the loss of Karim Benzema due to a thigh injury in training last week, France are still favourites to top the group after gaining automatic qualification from being the only team from their qualification group to make it to the World Cup.

Australia had to beat the United Arab Emirates in an AFC Playoff match where an 84th-minute winner from Ajdin Hrustic found them qualification to the group stage after finishing behind Saudi Arabia and Japan in their AFC group.

The match will be shown on BBC One with kick-off at 19:00, and will also be shown on the BBC iPlayer and the BBC Sport Website with highlights on the BBC Sport YouTube channel.
