Group C is wide open, with Poland leading on four points. Argentina and Saudi Arabia are next on three points, while Mexico have one point.

Saudi Arabia, who come into this one on the back of their 2-0 defeat against Poland, know a win will secure them a spot in the Last 16 due to Poland and Argentina facing each other.

Mexico, meanwhile, need to beat Saudi Arabia and hope Poland beat Argentina for Gerardo Martino's side to advance.

They can also progress out of the group if Poland and Argentina ends level – however, Mexico would need to beat Saudi Arabia by four goals.
