welcome to Sportstar’s live coverage of the 2026 FIFA World Cup Group H match between Spain and Saudi Arabia, played in Atlanta, USA. Both Spain and Saudi Arabia are yet to win in the tournament, after drawing against Cape Verde and Uruguay respectively.
Moreover, Spain, the reigning European champions, will be hoping to score their first goal at this World Cup, something the Saudi team has already done against Marcelo Bielsa’s Uruguay.
Spain has named a slightly changed starting line-up. This also applies to Saudi Arabia as the teams deepen their World Cup bid, with several teams having already secured their place in the knockouts.
