After two rounds of the FIFA World Cup group stage, Spain have 4 points from two matches in Group H, while Uruguay and Cape Verde each have 2 points, and Saudi Arabia have 1 point. In the final round, Spain will face Uruguay directly.
Spain's Round of 32 opponent will depend heavily on their group finish. If Spain finishes as Group H winners (H1), they will face the runner-up from Group J (J2), which includes Argentina and Austria. If Spain finishes second (H2), they will face the Group J winners (J1), currently expected to be Argentina.
Should Spain win their Round of 32 match as H1, their Round of 16 opponent will be determined by the K2 vs L2 match. Group K includes Portugal and Colombia, while Group L features England and Croatia.
If Spain finish as H1, they will be placed in the upper bracket alongside the United States, the Group G winner, and two additional third-placed teams from the draw.
Germany have already been confirmed in the upper bracket. France and the Netherlands may also advance to the upper bracket, though in a different section.
