Where to watch Japan vs Spain on TV and online in the United Kingdom, United States, Africa and India 

Japan and Spain meet in their final group match of the 2022 World Cup to decide who goes through in Group E at Khalifa International Stadium on Thursday.

The Samurai Blues started their campaign with a 2-1 win over four-time champions Germany but then lost to Costa Rica in their second match. They need a victory in their final group to be assured a spot in the last 16.

Spain have had mixed fortunes at the 2022 World Cup. They began the tournament with a massive 7-0 win over Costa Rica before being held by Germany. But all they need to do is avoid defeat to Japan in order to book their place in the next round.
