USA vs Australia: Pre-Match Opta Facts

At 35 years, 250 days old, Matthew Leckie is the second oldest player, and oldest outfield player, to start a FIFA World Cup match for Australia (Mark Schwarzer – 37 years, 260 days in 2010). Ricardo Pepi and Folarin Balogun start together for the third time and the first since September 2024. They have played just 187 total minutes together for the USA, though the team scored five times in those minutes. USA and Australia are meeting at the World Cup for the first time. Their four previous encounters were all friendlies, with the USA winning the last two: 3-1 in June 2010 and 2-1 in October 2025 – the USA forward Haji Wright scored twice in the latter, from two Cristian Roldan assists. Australia’s only previous match against a World Cup host was in 1974 – they lost 3-0 to West Germany in Hamburg. United States have won each of their last seven matches played in Seattle, including each of their five matches at the Seattle Stadium. This will be their first match in Washington state in 10 years – their last game was on 16th June 2016, a 2-1 win against Ecuador. USA’s 4-1 win over Paraguay on MD1 was their joint-biggest margin of victory at the FIFA World Cup, and the first time they’ve scored 4+ goals in a match. They’re looking to win consecutive games at the tournament for the first time since their first two matches in the inaugural 1930 edition, one of which was a 3-goal victory over Paraguay. Australia have won three of their last four FIFA World Cup matches (L1), more than they won in their first 17 matches in the competition (W2 D4 L11). Those three victories have come despite facing 31 more shots than they had themselves across all three wins (26 shots, 57 faced). Folarin Balogun bagged a brace against Paraguay in USA’s opening match. The only players to score more for USA in a single edition of the FIFA World Cup are Bert Patenaude (4 in 1930) and Landon Donovan (3 in 2010). Nestory Irankunda became Australia’s youngest ever FIFA World Cup scorer (20 years, 125 days) in their win over Türkiye on MD1. The last player under the age of 21 to score in his first two World Cup appearances was Memphis Depay for the Netherlands in 2014.
