Group F of the FIFA World Cup continues with the Netherlands v Sweden.
Ronald Koeman’s troops were twice pegged back by Japan in their opening game, so even a win tonight doesn’t take them through.
That’s not the case for Sweden, however. Should Graham Potter’s side prevail, they’ll ensure passage to the Round of 32.
Kick-off at the Houston Stadium is at 18:00 BST.

TEAM NEWS
Potter, unsurprisingly, keeps faith with the same starting XI that trounced Tunisia 5-1.
So, all the notable team news comes from the Dutch camp.
Memphis Depay ($7.4m) is again only among the substitutes for the Netherlands.
Koeman does make one change in attack, however, replacing Round 1 goalscorer Crysencio Summerville ($5.3m) with Sunderland’s Brian Brobbey ($5.7m). The West Ham United winger had reportedly been a mild fitness concern this week.
Donyell Malen ($6.1m) will presumably move to a wider role to accommodate Brobbey, then.
Frenkie de Jong ($7.0m) is fit to start despite suffering from abdominal discomfort this week.
Koeman is down one substitute this evening as Quinten Timber ($6.8m) is out with a concussion.
Only three players tonight have ownerships in excess of 5%: Viktor Gyokeres ($7.8m), Denzel Dumfries ($5.7m) and Virgil van Dijk ($5.5m).
