Australia is set for another nail-biting game in the 2022 Qatar FIFA World Cup this Sunday, taking on Argentina - led by Lionel Messi

The match will air 5:00 am - 8:30 am (AEDT), with kick-off starting at 6:00 am, live and free on SBS and SBS On Demand.

SEN will be broadcasting the match across the entire radio network.

The Socceroos first met with Argentina in 1988 for the Bicentennial Gold Cup, and is the Socceroos' only win against the Argentinians - 4 - 1.

Since then, Australia has had five losses and one draw against the Latin nation.

The upcoming match between Australia and Argentina comes after the Socceroos' recent triumph over Denmark - 1 - 0 - with Mathew Leckie scoring a goal in the 60th minute.
