South Korea v Germany (15:00 BST)
Image source, .Germany will qualify if they win by two or more goals.
A one-goal win might be enough - but it depends on the score in the other game (Mexico v Sweden, which kicks off at the same time). There's a whole word of mini-league tables, goals scored and yellow cards. Let's just cross that bridge that if we have to.
If it's a draw, they will go through if Sweden draw or have an equal or lower-scoring draw. So if both games end 1-1, Germany are through. But if Sweden draw 1-1 and Germany draw 0-0, they're out.
South Korea can still qualify if they beat Germany and Sweden lose, and finish with a better goal difference than those two teams.
Guide to today's groundpublished at 13:46 British Summer Time 27 June 2018
Kazan Arena
Image source, Getty ImagesCapacity:44,779*
Opened: 2013
Climate: Average highs of 24C and lows of 14C with a 55% chance of rain
Time Zone: BST +2 hours
Approximate distance from Moscow: 510 miles
Location: The capital and largest city of the Republic of Tatarstan, east of Moscow, Kazan lies at the confluence of the Volga and Kazanka rivers in European Russia.
Background: If the Kazan Arena has a familiar look to it, there is a good reason. The stadium was designed by the same firm of architects that oversaw the new Wembley and Arsenal's Emirates Stadium. This is on a smaller scale than the two London-based stadiums, housing just under 45,000 people, but remains impressive nonetheless.
Completed in July 2013 to serve as the main venue of that year's Summer Universiade (an international multi-sport event for university athletes), the ground has since been used as the home of Rubin Kazan.
It might also be the most versatile venue at this summer's World Cup, having also hosted some of the competitions at the 2015 World Aquatics Championships, for which the football pitch was replaced by two swimming pools.

These World Cup group stages have had so many magic moments so far (crucial late goals from Ronaldo, Shaqiri, Brazil, Kane and more, Russia winning the opener 5-0, that Iran throw-in) but perhaps none better than Toni Kroos' absolute free-kick stunner against Sweden.
The world champions were on the brink of a group exit after only two games before Marco Reus levelled in the second half. Even at that stage qualification was still out of their hands until Kroos' clutch goal in the 95th minute.
A big moment from a big player. Who even does free-kick routines like that? It was almost like American football. Anyone else would have just crossed it into the box - and probably seen it headed away.

Media caption, 'Would you believe it?' - Kroos nets injury-time winner
Postpublished at 11:43 British Summer Time 27 June 2018
"Can Toni Kroos here whip up a winner that gets Germany back on the right path? They look to Kroos for a miracle...
"He’s delivered it – would you believe it? They were 45 minutes away from going out, they had a player sent off and now they’re back in the driving seat."
