World Cup 2022: What channel is USA vs Wales on? Kick-off time, TV and stream details and more

The final World Cup 2022 fixture today will see the United States of America take on Wales at the Ahmad bin Ali Stadium, in a highly-anticipated Group B matchup following on from England and Iran's game earlier in the day.

The event will mark Wales' first match at a World Cup in 64 years, after more than half a century of misery in competitive football for the nation itself.

And the side will be going into the coveted competition with high hopes, with a squad packed out with experience, as well as exciting breakthrough talent all in all.

USA on the other hand will be hopeful to pick up where they left off at the 2014 World Cup in Brazil, being eliminated by the hosting country in the round of 16. The Stars and Stripes failed to qualify for the 2018 World Cup in Russia, their first miss since 1986 after being bettered 2-1 by Trinidad and Tobago in the final qualifying round.

Here's everything you need to know about tuning into tonight's history-making World Cup fixture between the two sides.

When is USA vs Wales?

USA vs Wales kicks off at 7pm GMT this evening (November 21), at the 44,740 capacity Ahmad bin Ali Stadium in Al Rayyan, Qatar. The match itself will be Wales' first appearance at a World Cup since 1958, and their first in a competitive manner against the United States.

The two have came together twice before in international friendlies with the Dragon's yet to best the Stars and Stripes. In 2003, Landon Donovan and Eddie Lewis made the difference in a 2-0 victory in San Jose, while more recently in 2020 a fixture in Swansea ended in a goalless draw.

Hopefully it'll be 'third time lucky' for the UK nation.

How to watch the game -

The game will be broadcast live for free on ITV, with coverage starting at 6.05pm. The match can also be streamed live on the ITV Hub.

If you can't tune in live, highlights will be available to watch at 10.40pm on BBC One this evening during the 2022 FIFA World Cup highlights show. This will also be available to catch on the BBC iPlayer.
