France vs Sweden: TV Channel, Kick-Off Time and Viewing Guide for World Cup Round of 32

The World Cup Round of 32 will see France face Sweden in a match loaded with anticipation. France enters the knockout phase brimming with confidence after convincingly beating Senegal, Iraq, and Norway, scoring at least three goals in each game.

Kylian Mbappe, chasing the golden boot, has already scored four times in the group stage and looks eager to add to that tally. Sweden, managed by Graham Potter, barely advanced as one of the top eight third-placed teams and are seen as clear underdogs in this matchup. To cause an upset against Didier Deschamps' squad would be a remarkable feat, especially considering Deschamps returned briefly to France for his mother’s funeral but is back on the sidelines now.

Match Details

The encounter kicks off at 10pm BST (5pm ET) on Tuesday, 30 June, at the New York/New Jersey Stadium.

Broadcast Information

In the UK, the game will be broadcast live on ITV1, with STV covering the Scottish audience. For online viewers, streaming is available via ITV X and STV Player.

Next Opponent Awaits

The victor from this fixture will meet either Germany or Paraguay in the following round, scheduled for Saturday, 4 July, in Philadelphia.

Team Updates

France might welcome back William Saliba, who was rested against Norway due to a back issue. Sweden faces uncertainty with Isak Hien injured, prompting Victor Lindelof to shift from midfield into defense.
