- Japan were unfortunate to have exited the competition following their 4-3 defeat to Italy after Sebastian Giovinco struck late on to hand the Azzurri all three points.
- Head coach Alberto Zaccheroni may look to play Mike Havenaar and Hiroshi Kiyotake from the off, the latter of whom was an unused substitute in the loss to Italy, but looks set to name a similar starting XI for the final game of their campaign other than the two changes.
- The 2-0 defeat to Brazil saw Mexico's Confederations Cup campaign come to an abrupt end, with only pride to play for in their final Group A game of the competition.
- Head coach José Manuel de la Torre may look to keep any changes to a minimum, with Carlos Salcido set to return to left back and Jesus Zavala coming back into midfield.
