Today’s World Cup action kicks off with a morning showdown between the two underdogs in Group D. Surely, defeat for either Tunisia or Australia will be curtains for their run in Qatar after they both failed to win their opening games.
The Carthage Eagles go into this clash with renewed confidence having held Denmark in their first match, and they are one of the teams boosted by a huge following at a World Cup that is relatively local for them. However, Tunisia have never made it past the group stage.
Australia have only once graced the last-16 and are up against it with an unfancied team that was resoundingly beaten by France last time out, even if they did cause the world champions an early scare. BBC One will broadcast this game on TV and you can follow all the action via Standard Sport’s LIVE World Cup blog!
