Who are the ITV commentators, pundits and presenters for Uruguay vs Spain?

Tottenham boss Ange Postecoglou.

World Cup 2026 Group H comes to a close with meetings of the top two in Guadalajara and the bottom two in Houston.

The former sees second-placed Uruguay taking on group leaders Spain at Estadio Akron. It will be broadcast live and for free in the UK on ITV1. It will also be streamed via ITVX.

Coverage begins at 12:15am ahead of kick-off at 1:00am, so let's find out who'll be there in ITV's studio in Brooklyn with all you need to know about the Uruguay vs Spain pundits, commentators and presenters.

Your presenter in New York tonight will be Laura Woods, who will be joined by an all-star panel with plenty of opinion just waiting to get out.

ITV regular Gary Neville will be flanked by ex-Spain midfielder Juan Mata and former Celtic and Tottenham Hotspur manager Ange Postecoglou.

Mata knows the Spanish national team set-up inside and out, and isn't short of tangible experience when it comes to succeeding at major international tournaments.

With Mata in the squad, Spain won the World Cup in 2010 and the European Championship two summers later. He scored the last of their four goals against Italy in Kyiv in 2012.

Postecoglou brings a different flavour to the panel having managed not only in England and Scotland but in Australia and Japan too. He was most recently in charge of Nottingham Forest in the Premier League.

Neville is never short of a view and will have lots to say about the efforts of Uruguay and Spain in Guadalajara.

As a trio of engaging experts, this selection might be among the best and most balanced combinations the World Cup has to offer.

Spain hold the advantage in this clash of World Cup winners. Their two-point advantage means they'll stay above Uruguay with a draw and almost certainly win the group.

But if Uruguay win, it's Marcelo Bielsa's men that will go through in first place.

Seb Hutchinson will serve as the match's main voice, and he will be joined by ex-Crystal Palace man Andros Townsend in the role of co-commentator.

Will Spain hold on to top spot? Let us know your prediction...
