World Cup co-hosts Mexico got off to a winning start against South Africa in this tournament's opener last Thursday.

So, too, did Group A rivals South Korea who saw off Czechia in Guadalajara to give themselves a real chance of making the knockout stage.

Here is all the information regarding tonight's commentators for the BBC Two coverage of this fixture, which kicks off at 2am.

Coverage in the UK begins on BBC One at 1:50am, just ten minutes ahead of kick-off.

There was no studio presence on the public broadcaster ahead of the game as a result, with the BBC instead throwing straight to commentators Jonathan Pearce and Martin Keown for the game.

Jonathan Pearce is one of the BBC’s longest-serving commentators and has voiced several World Cups and European Championships.

He is joined by ex-Arsenal and England defender Martin Keown, whose punditry career has seen him turn his hand at television co-comms, studio analysis and radio commentary.
