BBC commentators, presenters and pundits for Portugal vs DR Congo
Coverage in the UK begins on BBC One at 5:30pm, 30 minutes before kick-off at NRG Stadium.
Mark Chapman will anchor proceedings in the studio, wrangling the views of England legend Wayne Rooney and former France duo Olivier Giroud and Gael Clichy.
Steve Bower will be your commentator for the first game of the day, meaning co-commentary insight from another former England international in the form of ex-Liverpool midfielder Danny Murphy.
Rooney scored 53 goals in 120 senior appearances for England and was sent off when he came face-to-face with Manchester United teammate Cristiano Ronaldo after going boot-to-undercarriage with Ricardo Carvalho.
That was the United duo's first World Cup. Ronaldo, 41, will make it six when he strides out in Texas today.
Clichy and Giroud, both former Premier League players, played 157 times for France between them, scoring 57 times.
Clichy accounts for none of those but won the title three times with Arsenal and Manchester City. Giroud never won the Premier League but did win both the Europa League and Champions League with Chelsea.
The striker also won the World Cup with France in 2018 and was involved again as they ran Argentina close in the final four years later.
It's bound to be a famous afternoon at NRG Stadium in Houston, where Ronaldo will aim to match the leading lights who've already arrived at World Cup 2026.
Will Ronaldo grab his record-breaking goal against DR Congo? Let us know your prediction...
