A draw will see France remain at the top of the group.

Australia and Peru are already aware this is their last match of the World Cup and both will want to at least leave with one win from the competition.

Croatia is also already sure of their progression from group D, but Nigeria, Iceland and Argentina all have a chance if they win their match and the other match plays out favourably.

Only Nigeria can be certain that if they win their game, Iceland and Argentina will not be able to catch them on points.

A draw for Nigeria may also mean progression if Iceland does not win by enough goals, draws, or loses against Croatia.
