How to Watch Portugal vs. Spain: TV Channels, Streaming, and Kickoff Time for World Cup Round of 16

The clash between Portugal and Spain in the Round of 16 brings together two European neighbors with a rich football rivalry. These teams have met 41 times before, mostly in friendlies, but their recent encounter ended dramatically when Portugal triumphed over Spain on penalties in the 2025 UEFA Nations League Finals.

The momentum heading into this match differs for each side. Spain dominated Austria with a 3-0 victory, featuring a brace from Mikel Oyarzabal. Meanwhile, Portugal overturned an early deficit against Austria as well, securing a 2-1 win thanks to a penalty from Cristiano Ronaldo and a late winner by Gonçalo Ramos during extra time.

Winning this match means advancing to the quarterfinals, a stage both teams have reached previously. Portugal made it to the last eight in 2022 but were eliminated by Morocco, while Spain's last quarterfinal appearance came in 2010 when they won the World Cup.
