Day 10 of the World Cup: Germany aims to secure the pass to the round of 16
Germany looks to secure a place in the round of 16 as Ecuador takes on Curaçao and other key matches take place.
The 2026 World Cup continues on Saturday with Germany looking to qualify for the knockout stages for the first time since 2014. Here's what you need to know for Day 10 of the tournament.
Netherlands vs. Sweden Saturday, June 20 | 19:00 CET | Houston | TV: Fox Odds: Netherlands (-140), Sweden (+380), Draw (+280) Sweden is coming off a crushing 5-0 victory against Tunisia, currently leading the group. Two top strikers, Viktor Gyökeres and Alexander Isak, feature prominently after the triumph against Tunisia. The Netherlands, however, drew 2-2 with Japan, having failed to maintain two second-half leads. A win for the Netherlands would be crucial ahead of the final group match against Tunisia, while Sweden will be looking for at least a point to secure a good position.
Germany vs. Ivory Coast Saturday, June 20 | 22:00 CET | Toronto | TV: Fox Odds: Germany (-195), Ivory Coast (+490), Draw (+360) The winner of this match could secure first place in Group E depending on the result of the match between Ecuador and Curaçao. Both teams won their first match, with Germany achieving an impressive 7-1 win over Curaçao. Another convincing win against Ivory Coast would demonstrate the contender ambitions of Germany, who, since 2014, have never managed to get past the group stage. Ivory Coast's Elye Wahi could start after receiving permission to enter Canada after initially being banned over match-fixing allegations.
Ecuador vs. Curaçao Saturday, June 20 | 02:00 CET | Kansas City, Missouri | TV: FS1 Odds: Ecuador (-1000), Curaçao (+2000), Draw (+1000) Will Curaçao manage to score a second goal in World Cup history after the moment of hope against Germany? The only goal conceded by Ecuador against Ivory Coast already represents 20% of the total goals conceded during the qualifiers. Ecuador's defensive solidity is one of the reasons they are a big favorite. Hopefully the luck in attack improves; Ecuador hit the post three times against Ivory Coast, failing to manage 12 shots. A win would be crucial to Ecuador's hopes of advancing to the knockout stages for the first time since 2006.
Tunisia vs. Japan Saturday, June 20 | 00:00 CET | Monterrey, Mexico | TV: FS1 Odds: Tunisia (+600), Japan (-195), Draw (+300) This will be the first match of the tournament for Tunisia's new coach, Hervé Renard, appointed after the sacking of Sabri Lamouchi. Renard will become the first coach to manage three World Cups with three different countries. Japan showed against the Netherlands that they are a real threat for the quarter-finals, despite the absences of Wataru Endo, Kauro Mitoma and Takumi Minamino due to injuries. A win for Japan, combined with a win over the Netherlands, would eliminate Tunisia from the tournament.
