Uruguay and South Korea meet in the group stages of the 2022 Qatar World Cup and we can reveal how to watch this match and provide the latest team news.

The two sides see themselves in Group H, alongside Portugal and Ghana, so it is not an easy group to get out of. This group is also the last to have its first match in the tournament.

With this in mind, both sides will be wanting to win their first game in order to pick up momentum for the rest of the tournament.

The two nations have some standout stars in their squad alongside some players who will play with a lot of pride and passion, and this game should hopefully provide a fair few goals.
