Japan and Sweden meet in their 2026 FIFA World Cup final group stage match on Thursday, June 25, 2026 at 7:00 p.m. ET from Dallas Stadium.

Japan drew 2-2 with the Netherlands in their opener and beat Tunisia 4-0 in their second match, with Daichi Kamada and Ayase Ueda each scoring twice across the two matches. Sweden beat Tunisia 5-1 in their opener and lost to the Netherlands 1-5 in their second match, with Yasin Ayari scoring twice so far in the tournament.

What's At Stake

A lot is at stake for Japan and Sweden when the two teams meet on Thursday at Dallas Stadium in Group F. Japan enters the game on four points while Sweden has three points. The winner of this game is assured of a place in the knockout stages, and possible even the group title depending on how the Netherlands (also at four points) do against Tunisia.

Japan enters this game as the deserved favorite and can win the group if it defeats Sweden and the Dutch stumble. Even if both teams win, Japan can win Group F if its margin of victory is greater than the margin for the Netherlands.

Below are the details on how to watch.
