Key storylines to follow
Argentina is currently the reigning champion and winner of Group J with three consecutive victories. Their performance at this year's World Cup so far has positioned them comfortably and made them one of the favorites to win the trophy. If Argentina wins, they will be making history as one of only two teams so far to have won the Cup back-to-back.
Lionel Messi is the obvious star to look out for this match, continuing to maintain the highest goal total in World Cup history. He currently has 19 goals to his name.
However, Cape Verde is also undefeated, tying all of their matches so far, finishing second in their group, which included past World Cup winners, such as Spain and Uruguay. It is a feat for the country, as they are the smallest one to qualify and it is their first time qualifying for the World Cup.
Regardless of the outcome, the win will be in the World Cup history books.
