Mexico’s next World Cup game is set to be played at Estadio Azteca in Mexico City. The match is listed for Sunday, July 5 , with Mexico staying at home for the round of 16.

Match details

  • Venue: Estadio Azteca, Mexico City.
  • Round: Round of 16.
  • Opponent: Not finalized yet; it depends on the bracket.

Why that matters

That means Mexico would get another home match in front of its own crowd if it advances, which is a big advantage. Reports also note the altitude and atmosphere in Mexico City as part of the edge.

Quick note

If you meant Mexico’s group-stage next game instead of its knockout match, that was scheduled for Estadio Akron in Guadalajara.
