A win here would get the victors' campaign back on track and boost their chances of a place in the round of 32, whereas another defeat would would all but spell early elimination. The stakes are high.Czech Republic took the lead against South Korea thanks to captain Ladislav Krejci last time out, but couldn't hold out with Hwang In-beom scoring the winner 10 minutes from time in a 2-1 defeat of the Central Europeans. Miroslav Koubek's side will rely on a similar approach here, built around getting crosses into the box from open play, long throw-ins and set pieces for Tomas Soucek and Krejci to attack. A physical and direct side, Czechia do not overelaborate in midfield.South Africa were well beaten by Mexico on opening night, and a much-improved display is required on Thursday. Bafana Bafana can be neat and tidy, but individual errors from Yaya Sithole — suspended today along with Themba Zwane after their red cards — and a lack of punch in the final third proved their undoing. Hugo Broos' side are now on a six-game winless run and need to start well if they're to get anything from this game.Here's how to watch Czech Republic vs South Africa in the FIFA World Cup online and on TV — starting with free streaming options.Watch Czech Republic vs South Africa free live streamsCzech Republic vs South Africa is free to watch in a number of countries, including the U.K., Australia, Belgium, Brazil, Netherlands and Turkey.Swipe to scroll horizontallyCountryFree StreamUKBBCAustraliaSBS On DemandBelgiumRTBF / VRTBrazilCaze TVNetherlandsNOSTurkeyTRTIrelandRTÉ Player🌎 Abroad and can't access your free stream of the game?
