Both Tunisia and Japan will be looking to secure their first win of the 2026 World Cup when they meet on Saturday (or Sunday depending on your time zone) at Estadio BBVA in Guadalupe, Mexico.
Tunisia was swept aside 5–1 by Sweden in its opening Group F match, a result that led to the dismissal of manager Sabri Lamouchi.
