With defending champion Spain out yesterday in a surprise 2-0 loss against Chile, today鈥檚 line-up has teams battling for advancement.

- Colombia takes on Cote d鈥橧voire at noon EST at聽the National Stadium in the capital of Bras铆lia.

- Uruguay faces England at聽3:00 p.m. EST聽at聽Arena Corinthians in S茫o Paulo.

- Japan plays Greece at聽6:00 p.m. EST聽at聽Arena das Dunas in the northeastern city of Natal.

Both Colombia and Cote d鈥橧voire won their opening round matches. Experts are giving Colombia the edge, but Cote d鈥橧voire forward Didier Drogba could present a big challenge.

Today鈥檚 match to watch is Uruguay vs. England. Both teams won the World Cup decades ago and both teams lost their 2014 opening round matches. That makes this match key for either team to advance. After losing to Costa Rica, 1-3, Uruguay is hoping forward Luis Suarez will be in better shape today. This World Cup tournament has already seen almost聽three times as many goals聽on average per game compared to the last Cup in 2010.

Japan and Greece are the bottom two teams in Group C after having lost their opening round matches. Greece has lost six of its last seven World Cup matches, giving Japan a slight edge in this line-up.

All three matches will be shown on ESPN and Univision. If you're not going to be near a TV, you can watch on the Univision website or download the free Univision mobile app. Or if you're a cable-TV subscriber, you can watch on the WatchESPN app.聽
