Mexico has never got past the second round at a World Cup when playing overseas and El Tri get their tournament started against Poland on Tuesday (11:00am ET, FS1, Peacock, Telemundo).
Argentina and Saudi Arabia will also have to be faced in Group C before we know if Gerardo Martino's team can qualify for the head-to-head elimination stages, but this game looks key in their quest to reach the round of 16 in Qatar.
Poland will have high hopes too as it has one of the world's best strikers in Robert Lewandowski, so this looks like being one of the most intriguing matchups in the first round of games and we have picked out a Same Game Parlay to add to the excitement.
We cashed our Qatar vs Ecuador Same Game Parlay on the opening game of the tournament at +1077 odds, so let’s try to repeat that success.
