Where to watch Uruguay vs. Spain live stream, TV channel, start time for World Cup Group H match originally appeared on The Sporting News. Add The Sporting News as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
Uruguay and Spain collide in what may be the marquee match of their group. It's a clash between a historic South American power and one of the true favorites to lift the trophy this summer.
Spain arrives as a legitimate title contender, ranked third in the world and carrying the momentum of a Euro 2024 championship. La Roja has made the World Cup every year since 1978 and won the whole thing in 2010.
However, Spain started flat this year after a 0-0 draw against Cape Verde in their opener, but looks to build momentum.
Uruguay is no easy opponent, appearing at the World Cup for the 15th time overall and the fifth consecutive time. The Uruguayans were sent home in the group stage in 2022 and haven't won the tournament since 1950.
Federico Valverde, Darwin Núñez and Ronald Araújo give Uruguay the quality to trouble any team in the field, and they'll need every bit of it against a Spanish side looking to remind the world exactly why they're considered favorites.
Here's everything you need to know to watch the Uruguay vs. Spain World Cup match, including where to watch on TV or live stream, what time the game starts and more.
