England are sitting pretty in Group B, as they take on their fellow Brits in a matchup with as many social implications as sporting ones.
As Group B leaders, the Three Lions will both qualify for the knockout stage and secure the group’s top spot with a win, and they guarantee a knockout place with a draw as well.
Wales, meanwhile, are in a desperate situation, needing to go gangbusters to have a chance at advancing to the knockout stage. They’re not mathematically eliminated, but would require an enormous win to wipe out their negative goal differential and qualify.
Still, both sides will want to produce a positive result regardless of the implications to the tournament bracket as two U.K. countries with deep history and a friendly rivalry. Wales can still be proud of a positive result, even if it ends up being not quite enough to secure passage to the Round of 16.
Below are all the details to follow the England vs Wales match, including the kickoff time for fans around the world.

Group B standings, scenarios
With the World Cup well underway, here’s a look at Group B.
The scenarios for the other match are simple, as the United States must win, while Iran need a draw or win to advance. For this game, however, it’s slightly more complicated.
For England, they just need a single point to confirm qualification to the knockout round, while they guarantee themselves the top spot with a win. They can also win the group with a draw, or loss by three or less, both only in the event that Iran and the United States draw.
Wales are in a desperate situation, as while they’re not officially eliminated, they require an historic and unlikely result. They require a victory by four goals or more to advance, as they must catch England on both points total and goal difference, regardless of what happens in the other match.
