Saudi Arabia and Egypt will bow out with a final Group A fixture after the two sides lost both their previous matches
Saudi Arabia and Egypt are essentially battling for third place in Group A when they face off at the Volgograd Arena, after the two sides both lost their opening two World Cup matches.
It has been a particularly disappointing campaign for Egypt, who were already dealt a blow heading into the competition knowing that their star forward Mohamed Salah was still sustaining a shoulder injury. They lost 1-0 to Uruguay in their opening fixture and were thumped 3-1 by Russia in the next one.
