Mexico's World Cup campaign has been desperately disappointing so far and Tata Martino's men will look to avoid a humiliating exit when they face Saudi Arabia in the final game of Group C.
El Tri have one point from their two matches, are yet to score a goal and need a big win in their final game to have any hope of making the knockout stages.
Saudi Arabia meanwhile could make the last 16 with a draw depending on the result in the game between Poland and Argentina.

Saudi Arabia vs Mexico preview
With experienced international manager Herve Renard at the helm, Saudi Arabia have shown themselves to be a well-coached outfit and will provide a stern test for an insipid Mexico side.
The Mexicans may have more talented individuals but they have not been playing as a cohesive unit and upfront there has been a noticeable lack of spark for El Tri.
The Saudis will surely provide competitive opponents roared on by a huge travelling support and opposing Mexico to claim a comfortable win should be an obvious selection.
Saudi Arabia vs Mexico tips and predictions
Saudi Arabia to win with a +1 Asian handicap should appeal at 7/10 (1.70). This bet pays out in full if Herve Renard team win or draw, while the initial stake is refunded if they lose by one goal.
