The FIFA World Cup 2026 knockout stage resumes with two mouth-watering Round of 16 encounters on Sunday as Brazil lock horns with Norway before co-hosts Mexico take on England in a battle for a place in the quarterfinals.

Five-time champions Brazil remain on course for a record sixth World Cup crown but face a tricky challenge against a confident Norway side. The South Americans needed a late winner to get past Japan in the previous round, while Norway stunned Ivory Coast to seal their place in the last 16 and will be eager to continue their giant-killing run.
Later in the day, co-hosts Mexico will square off against England at the historic Estadio Azteca. Buoyed by home support, Mexico will look to make the most of familiar surroundings, while England arrive after overcoming DR Congo in the previous round. With a quarterfinal berth at stake, both teams will be aiming to produce their best performance under pressure.

Brazil vs Norway: Preview

Brazil head into the Round of 16 as favourites after overcoming Japan in the previous round, with Carlo Ancelotti's side among the leading contenders for a record-extending sixth World Cup title. However, the Selecao are unlikely to have it easy against a Norway side that has been one of the tournament's biggest surprise packages.


Norway booked their place in the knockout stage by eliminating Ivory Coast and have impressed with their disciplined defending and swift counter-attacking play. While Brazil will look to control possession and make the most of their attacking firepower, Norway will hope their defensive organisation and ability to strike on the break can produce another upset.

Mexico vs England: Preview

Co-hosts Mexico face one of their toughest tests of the tournament as they take on England at the iconic Estadio Azteca. El Tri secured their place in the Round of 16 with a victory over Ecuador and will be hoping home support can propel them into the last eight.

England, meanwhile, advanced after defeating DR Congo and will be eager to halt Mexico's impressive run. With both sides boasting plenty of attacking talent but contrasting styles of play, the clash promises to be one of the most intriguing contests of the Round of 16.
