Mexico have already secured a place in the knockout stage and top spot in Group A, but Thursday’s clash against the Czech Republic could still prove challenging.

The co-hosts head into their final group match at Estadio Azteca with six points from two games after victories over South Africa and South Korea, without conceding a goal.

The Czech Republic sit on one point after a 2-1 loss to South Korea and a 1-1 draw with South Africa, leaving them needing a positive result to keep their World Cup hopes alive.
