The Mexico national team returns to the pitch this Saturday evening for a friendly fixture against Australia, with fewer than two weeks remaining before their much-anticipated 2026 World Cup campaign begins.
El Tri secured a 2–0 win over Ghana in the first of three pre-tournament friendlies scheduled as part of Mexico's final World Cup preparations. The Australia match, however, marks the last opportunity for players to impress before Javier Aguirre names his definitive 26-man squad. For those on the fringes, it's a make-or-break moment to secure a spot at the World Cup.
Australia poses a considerably stiffer test. Both the Socceroos and Mexico launched their World Cup training camps in early May and, similar to Mexico, Tony Popovic will announce Australia's final squad following Saturday's friendly.
A string of positive results has lifted the spirits around El Tri since the start of 2026. Unbeaten across six matches and boasting four wins already, the expectation is that Aguirre's side will make it five on Saturday. With several overseas-based players now integrated into the camp, Aguirre may field a starting XI close to the one he plans to use against South Africa in Mexico's World Cup opener.
It's the second-to-last match El Tri will play before the tournament kicks off, and with anticipation building, here's everything you need to know about how to watch Mexico vs. Australia this Saturday night.
