Spain face off against Japan in their final group stage game, with Luis Enrique’s side eyeing all three points to secure top spot in Group E.
Spain hammered Costa Rica 7-0 in their opening game before drawing 1-1 with Germany last Sunday, meaning a win will secure top spot in the group.
Should Spain draw with Japan, they will still top the group, providing Costa Rica don’t beat Germany in the other game.

Japan come into this one on the back of their surprise 1-0 defeat against Costa Rica. Hajime Moriyasu’s side were quickly brought back down to earth following their incredible 2-1 win against Germany in their opening group game.
Germany will be confident of beating Costa Rica in the other group game, which would put them level on points with Spain if they lose against Japan. However, Pedri and co have a superior goal difference and they’d still finish second in Group E.
