Group B: South Africa vs Germany (12:00 pm EST)

Group B kicks off the action today, as South Africa hosts group-leader Germany in Montpellier. Germany is already through to the knockout stage with 6 points and can win the group with only a draw. South Africa, meanwhile, is fighting for survival. Realistically, only a win against Germany might put them in the top four third-place teams, allowing them to advance to the round of 16. Germany may rest some players, but should still handily win.

Group B: China vs Spain (12:00 pm EST)

While Germany is likely to win the group, second and third in group B is up for grabs: Spain and China will be playing at the same time. They are both tied for points at 3, and Spain currently sits in second place on +1 goal difference. Spain is favored to win, but China could well surprise them.

Group A: South Korea vs Norway (3:00 pm EST)

South Korea almost certainly will not advance beyond the group stage, unless they somehow beat Norway by multiple goals. Norway could solidify its position in second place in Group A behind France with a win.

Group A: Nigeria vs France (3:00 pm EST)

France, one of the favorites to go all the way, faces third-place Nigeria. A win would make three of three for them, while Nigeria will have all they can do to stop France from scoring several goals against them to keep their round-of-sixteen hopes alive.
