Argentina vs Egypt on TV? Channel, kick-off time and how to watch World Cup last-16 clash

Argentina meet Egypt in the World Cup last 16 on Tuesday 7 July at Atlanta Stadium, with kick-off set for 5pm BST as they aim to avoid another knockout-stage scare. The holders needed extra time to beat Cape Verde 3-2 after going behind twice, with an own goal deciding the tie in Miami during the Round of 32. Egypt, meanwhile, secured their first-ever knockout win via a penalty shootout against Australia and will be hoping to trouble Lionel Scaloni’s side, led by Mohamed Salah. Messi has seven goals so far in the tournament, matching the pace in the Golden Boot race with Kylian Mbappé. In the quarter-final, the winner will face Switzerland or Colombia in Kansas City on Sunday 11 July. UK viewers can watch on ITV1 or stream on ITVX. Team availability is affected by Facundo Medina’s cramps and Nico Gonzalez’s ankle sprain, while Egypt are uncertain about Karim Hafez and may miss Ahmed Fatouh as backup.
