Senegal vs Netherlands
Netherlands and Senegal, meet in one of three matches on Monday as the 2022 World Cup really picks up pace. The pair are seen as the two favourites in the group but hosts Qatar and Ecuador, who believe they have a golden generation coming through, will be gunning to cause an upset.
Netherlands have been underachieving at major tournaments for some time – having failed to qualify for either Russia 2018 World Cup or France 2016 and been knocked out in the round of 16 at last summer’s Euros – but Louis van Gaal’s squad look strong this time around.

Kick-off: 9:30 PM IST
Venue: Al Thumama Stadium, Doha
Wales vs USA
Wales will make their first appearance at a World Cup final in 64 years when they face the USA in Al Rayyan in their Group B opener on Monday night. This fixture will complete the first round of fixtures in Group B, an intriguing section involving England and Iran which could be very tight.
The US are back at the World Cup finals after missing the 2018 edition in dismal fashion following a defeat in Trinidad & Tobago in their final qualifier. This time around, it was still a close-run affair in a very difficult qualifying section where the top four nations were separated by just three points, but the USA managed to claim one of the three automatic spots, just ahead of Costa Rica.
