Two former champions meet on the last matchday before the new Round of 32 opens on 28 June\, with seeding\, top spot and knockout bracket positioning all potentially on the line in the expanded 48-team format. \nWhat is the FIFA World Cup 2026?\nThe 2026 FIFA World Cup is the 23rd edition of football’s global showpiece\, co-hosted by the United States\, Canada and Mexico from 11 June to 19 July 2026. It is the first tournament to feature 48 teams and the first to be held across three host nations. Sides are drawn into 12 groups of four\, with the top two and the eight best third-placed finishers advancing to a new Round of 32 knockout stage. \nGroup stage finales like Spain vs Uruguay often shape the entire bracket. Teams jockey not only for progress\, but for the path of least resistance through the knockouts and a favourable side of the draw. \nWhen is Spain vs Uruguay?\nSpain vs Uruguay is played on Saturday 27 June 2026. Exact kick-off is confirmed in FIFA’s match schedule. As a final-round group fixture\, it is staged concurrently with the other match in the same group. \nWhere is Spain vs Uruguay?\nThe match is held at one of 16 confirmed tournament venues across the USA\, Canada and Mexico.

Spain won the World Cup in 2010 and remain one of the tournament favourites in North America. \nUruguay are two-time world champions with an identity built on collective intensity\, tactical discipline and producing elite attacking talent.
