Uruguay0 - 1SpainA group of death candidate: two world champions go head to head. Spain and Uruguay play for top spot and their World Cup history has no winner at all.
Group H is a candidate for "group of death". It features two world champions: Spain, the 2010 winner and one of the big favourites for 2026, and Uruguay, a two-time champion (1930 and 1950) that is always competitive. Their head-to-head could decide top spot.
And watch the outsiders: Saudi Arabia already pulled off one of the biggest shocks in history by beating Argentina in 2022, and Cape Verde produced one of the most astonishing qualifications of the tournament. A demanding group where even the favourites cannot relax.
Spain (2010 champions) and Uruguay (two-time winners, 1930 and 1950) have met twice at World Cups and both ended level: 2-2 in the final pool at Brazil 1950 and 0-0 in the group stage at Italy 1990.
Watch the outsiders: Saudi Arabia produced one of the biggest shocks in history by beating the eventual champions Argentina 2-1 at Qatar 2022, and Cape Verde delivered one of the tournament's most astonishing qualifications.
