Spain begin their 2026 World Cup campaign against Cabo Verde on Monday, June 15, in a Group H clash at Atlanta Stadium in the United States.
The match kicks off at 7:00 PM Cairo time and carries major importance for both sides. Spain are seeking a strong start, while Cabo Verde are making their first appearance in World Cup history.
La Roja enter the tournament as one of the leading contenders, backed by major quality in midfield and wide areas, as well as the confidence generated by their recent European success.
Head coach Luis de la Fuente confirmed that Lamine Yamal is available, with the possibility of using him from the bench after his recovery from previous muscle issues. Other attacking options, including Nico Williams, are also back in full training.
Cabo Verde, meanwhile, will rely on physical discipline and pace in transition after making history by qualifying for the World Cup for the first time following a strong campaign.
According to the announced broadcast information, beIN SPORTS carries the tournament in the Middle East and North Africa, while final line-ups remain pending until shortly before kick-off.
