World Cup 2018 group games
We are well into the second round of World Cup 2018 group games, but still none the wiser over who will win this summer's tournament.
After unconvincing performances from Spain, Uruguay and Portugal yesterday, Thursday's schedule includes fixtures between Denmark and Australia, France and Peru and Argentina vs Croatia.
With a busy schedule, here is our guide on how to watch every second of the action – a feast of pretty much non-stop football.
The full World Cup 2018 fixture schedule is included below, with timings, venues and TV channels included.
All times BST. Local times are BST +2 apart from games played in Kaliningrad (+1), Samara (+3) and Ekaterinburg (+4).
