Mexico and England will face off on the former’s home turf at Mexico City Stadium. Mexico punched its ticket to this game with a decisive 2-0 victory against Ecuador in the Round of 32 after topping Group A with South Africa, South Korea, and Czechia. England was also the top of its group and beat DR Congo 2-1 in the Round of 32 to make the Round of 16.

One of the biggest questions ahead of tonight’s matchup is whether England will be able to adapt to the altitude. Mexico City Stadium, normally known as Estadio Azteca, is located 7,220 feet above sea level. That hasn’t been an issue for Mexico, who’ve played three of their four matches there, but England won’t be as used to the lack of oxygen since they’re based in Kansas City for the tournament.
