The 2018 World Cup (WC) quarter-finals are set to get off to a thrilling start when Uruguay and France meet in the Nizhny Novgorod Stadium. The Euro 2016 finalists have the opportunity to reach the semi-finals of this competition for the first time since 1998.
After two straight wins against Australia (2-1) and Peru (1-0), the French were held to a goalless draw by Denmark, finishing top of Group C and conceding just once. In the round-of-16, coach Didier Deschamps led his men to a hard fought and exciting 4-3 win over Argentina and secured a spot in the quarter-finals.
The Uruguayans finished top of Group A, after three straight wins - without conceding a single goal. Defeating Portugal 2-1 in their round-of-16 game, thanks to a brace by Edinson Cavani, Óscar Tabárez’s men are one win away from getting Uruguay to the WC semi-finals for the second time in three WC tournaments.
In eight previous meetings with Uruguay in all competitions, France have a poor record that currently stands at: W1, D4, L3, and have a negative H2H goal difference of minus four (GF4, GA8).
Players to watch: Scoring two goals against Argentina, 19-year-old French striker Kylian Mbappébecame the youngest player to score a brace in a WC game since Pele.
He will go H2H with PSG teammate Edinson Cavani, who has three goals in this competition so far.
Stat attack: Six out of the sides’ eight encounters have produced less than 2.5 goals (each).
France have never won a single WC game against Uruguay (D2, L1), scoring only one goal in the process.
The South Americans are on a run of seven straight wins in all competitions, conceding just a single goal.
In all competitions, four of the last five clashes between the two sides have ended 0-0.

Five-time Champions Brazil will look to make their first World Cup (WC) final in 16 years when they take on red-hot Belgium in Kazan.
Brazil reached the WC quarter-finals for a seventh consecutive time after defeating Mexico 2-0 in their last-16 encounter. Goals by Neymar and Roberto Firmino were enough to break the Mexican resistance.
The Selecao have eight clean sheets in nine matches and will look to overcome the heartbreaking loss to Germany (7-1) from the last WC. Tite’s side has now remained unbeaten in 15 games (W11, D3) with just one goal conceded in four games in Russia.
Belgium will be a different proposition though, as they are on a 23-game unbeaten streak (W18, D5). They became the first team to fight back from two goals down to win a WC knockout game for 48 years when they defeated Japan 3-2.
They have already notched up 12 goals in the tournament and have lost only once in their last nine WC games (W8, L1). Their last six games have seen 19 goals and it will be their attacking talent that will look to trump Brazil.
Players to watch: Neymar (BRA) has been involved in 20 goals (11 goals, nine assists) in 19 matches. Eden Hazard (BEL) has been directly involved in 19 goals (ten goals, nine assists) in 18 games.
Stat attack: Brazil have kept a clean sheet in eight of their last nine matches.
Brazil remain unbeaten in ten games against European opponents (W8, D2), conceding just three goals.
Belgium have never kept a clean sheet in 12 WC knockout matches, conceding 28 goals.
There have been over 2.5 goals in five of Belgium’s last six matches.
Belgium have made successive WC quarter-finals appearances for the first time.
Brazil have won the last three matches against Belgium, the last time in 2002 WC.
