UK viewers will be watching keenly to see how Cristiano Ronaldo performs as Portugal face Uzbekistan in their second Group K match at the World Cup.
The European side are in need of a win having been held to a 1-1 draw by DR Congo in their opener, with both Ronaldo and Roberto Martinez left visibly frustrated.
This one will be on ITV1 in the early evening on Tuesday, so who will be providing the commentary and analysis of your post-work entertainment?

ITV commentators and pundits for Portugal vs Uzbekistan
The game will be played in Houston, Texas, while ITV’s coverage comes from their swanky New York studio, with coverage starting at 5pm ahead of a 6pm kick-off.
Mark Pougatch will be the lead presenter for viewers in the UK.
He will be joined by a trio of former Premier League greats, and two of Ronaldo’s ex team-mates.
Gary Neville will be on the terrace again to assess Portugal’s performance against Uzbekistan.
He will be joined by Overlap and Sky Sports colleague and ex-Manchester United team-mate Roy Keane, who will certainly not mince his words if Portugal flatter to deceive again.
Making up the punditry trio is former Everton striker Duncan Ferguson, who missed out on Scotland’s appearance at the 1998 World Cup but will still be able to provide his attacking expertise.
Plenty of perceptive analysis to be expected, then, with all eyes on Ronaldo as he looks to take the headlines away from Lionel Messi, Kylian Mbappe and Erling Haaland.
