Japan and Sweden will face off 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 the Netherlands 2-2 in their first match and beat Tunisia 4-0 in their second match, with Daichi Kamada and Ayase Ueda each scoring twice in the two matches. Sweden beat Tunisia 5-1 in their first match and lost to the Netherlands 1-5 in their second match, with Yasin Ayari scoring twice so far in the tournament.
What are the issues
There’s a lot at stake for Japan and Sweden when the two teams meet Thursday at Dallas Stadium in Group F. Japan enters the match with four points while Sweden has three. The winner of this match is assured of a place in the round of 16, or even the group title depending on the performance of the Netherlands (also on four points) against Tunisia.
Japan enters this match as deserved favorites and can win the group if they beat Sweden and the Dutch stumble. Even if both teams win, Japan can win Group F if its margin of victory is greater than that of the Netherlands.
