Streaming is your friend. Check out brother SCH's tips for streaming here.

All Times CDT

Qualified Teams
Russia (hosts)
Brazil
Iran
Japan
Mexico
Belgium

CONCACAF - Matchday 8 of 10
Honduras - USA, 4:30 p.m. (beIN)
Costa Rica - Mexico, 9 p.m. (beIN)
Panama - Trinidad & Tobago, 9 p.m. (beIN Connect 5)

frick us right in the arse if this shite goes down.



AFC - Matchday 10 of 10
Group A
Iran - Syria, 10 a.m.
Qatar - China, 10 a.m.
Uzbekistan - South Korea, 10 a.m. (ESPN3)

Iran already through as group winners. South Korea more than likely need a point to finish second unless Iran rolls over for Syria. If the Uzbeks can beat Korea (this basically never happens), then they'll more than likely qualify for their first-ever World Cup finals and it would be South Korea to the playoffs. China mathematically still alive for third place, but would need Korea to win, Syria to lose and make up a bunch of goals.

Group B
Australia - Thailand, 5 a.m. (ESPN3)
Iraq - UAE, 9 a.m.
Saudi Arabia - Japan, 12:30 p.m. (ESPN3)

If Australia win, they'll qualify for the finals provided Saudi Arabia doesn't better that result by three clear goals. This will be a long, drawn-out final day with plenty of drama since the games are so spaced out. UAE still in with a shout, though it seems a bit of a long shot.



UEFA - Matchday 8 of 10
Group D
Austria - Georgia, 1:45 p.m. (ESPN3)
Ireland - Serbia, 1:45 p.m. (FS+)
Moldova - Wales, 1:45 p.m. (FS Match Pass)

Despite a poor showing over the weekend, Ireland can go back to the top of Group D with a home victory against Serbia. Wales waiting in the wings to jump into the top two with a trip to Moldova. Austria still alive, but just one win in the last five has more than likely ended any hopes there.



Group G
Italy - Israel, 1:45 p.m. (FS1)
Liechtenstein - Spain, 1:45 p.m. (ESPN3)
Macedonia - Albania, 1:45 p.m. (ESPN3)

Spain grabbed upper hand with a convincing win over Italy the other night, and they should be able to consolidate their top spot against Liechtenstein. Italy should be able to bounce back against Israel, but Albania lurking four points back should the Azzurri have any unfortunate surprises.



Group I
Iceland - Ukraine, 1:45 p.m. (FS2)
Kosovo - Finland, 1:45 p.m. (FS Match Pass)
Turkey - Croatia, 1:45 p.m. (ESPN3)

Iceland's hopes took a massive hit with an untimely away loss to Finland, though this group is still anyone's at the moment. Croatia have a tough match against Turkey while Iceland look to bounce back into the top two at home against Ukraine.





CAF - Matchday 4 of 6
Group A
DR Congo - Tunisia, 12:30 p.m. (beIN Connect 6)

DR Congo need victory to pull level on points with Tunisia atop Group A. This is a two-horse race and the outcome of today's game could well decide the qualifier.

Group B
Algeria - Zambia, 2:30 p.m. (beIN Connect 9)

Nigeria got pegged back slightly yesterday with a draw in Cameroon, but they are still well and truly on top of Group B. Zambia might be the best hope of catching them, but they'll need a win against Algeria or else the Super Eagles will be on the brink of the finals.

Group C
Ivory Coast - Gabon, 12:30 p.m. (beIN Connect 7)
Mali - Morocco, 2 p.m. (beIN Connect 8)

Ivory Coast can consolidate top spot in Group C against Gabon, who have yet to score in their three games thus far. If the Ivorians slip up, Morocco sit two points back coming off a win last time out.

Group D
South Africa - Cape Verde, noon
Burkina Faso - Senegal, 1 p.m.

Completely wide open group at the halfway point. South Africa let slip a lead at Cape Verde last time out and they'll look to return the favor on home soil. Burkina Faso still unbeaten and on top of the group will play host to Senegal.

Group E
Congo - Ghana, 9:30 a.m.
Egypt - Uganda, 1 p.m.

Ghana in a world of hurt through three games. Nothing short of a win will get them back in the running. However, the bigger game is in Alexandria as Egypt can overtake Uganda atop Group E with a victory.



CONMEBOL - Matchday 16 of 18
Bolivia - Chile, 3 p.m. (beIN Connect 3)
Colombia - Brazil, 3:30 p.m. (beIN español)
Ecuador - Peru, 4 p.m. (beIN Connect 5)
Argentina - Venezuela, 6:30 p.m. (beIN Connect 3)
Paraguay - Uruguay, 7 p.m. (beIN)

Brazil have already won South American qualifying and to this point are the only CONMEBOL side into the finals. Mathematically, no one can qualify for the finals on Tuesday and only five points separate second from eighth with three games to play. Colombia need a statement against Brazil to avoid potentially having the pack swallow them. Argentina have a prime opportunity to get back on track against Venezuela at home while Paraguay could be in last-stand mode at home against Uruguay. Ecuador and Peru also slug it out to maybe keep their chances alive.

Australia give up an 83rd-minute equalizer to Thailand, but eke out a winner a few minutes later to avoid an egg-on-face moment at home. Saudi Arabia now must win this afternoon to qualify automatically.

New Zealand advances to the playoff round after a 2-2 draw with the Solomon Islands. Unfortunately for the All Whites, it'll be against the 5th place South American team. They'll be underdogs, for sure, but they did well in 2010.

South Korea into the finals. Uzbekistan had an open door but could only manage a 0-0 draw. Syria finishes third in Group B. They'll move to the Asian playoff against either Australia or Saudi Arabia.

Halftime between Saudi Arabia and Japan. 0-0. If SA wins, they finish 2nd and Austrailia finishes 3rd. Any other result, SA finishes 3rd and Australia finishes 2nd.

Australia will win, and will pose a real challenge to the CONCACAF side.

Woodburn once again the star for Wales. No goals, but an assist and some great play for the second.

End of an era for Chile. Had everything lined up perfectly for a WC bid for these past two games. Haven't scored a single goal in their last 4 competitive matches. Pizzi must go.

Tubarões Azuis doing some SERIOUS work in CAF's Group D, sweeping South Africa this international break to go level with Burkina Faso for the home stretch next month.

LET'S DO THIS, BLUE SHARKS!
