In brief
Spain, expected to top group H, were held to a goalless draw by World Cup debutants Cape Verde, leaving the group wide open.
Saudi Arabia beat eventual champions Argentina 2-1 in their opening match of the 2022 World Cup, a memory that gives them hope against Uruguay.
Spain's surprising 0-0 stalemate with World Cup debutants Cape Verde reshuffled group H, opening a path for Saudi Arabia or Uruguay to take an early lead. The two sides face each other in Miami, with Uruguay's experienced squad under Marcello Bielsa favoured on paper. But Saudi Arabia stunned Argentina in their opening match of the 2022 tournament, and the 2026 edition has already delivered upsets including Brazil's draw with Morocco and Australia's win over Turkey. A victory today would put either team on top of the group.
