After co-hosts Mexico booked their place in the Round of 32 with a 1-0 victory over South Korea on Thursday, either the USA or Australia can join them with a win in their Group D clash in Seattle.

The Americans made an impressive start to the tournament with a 4-1 victory over Paraguay and head into the meeting with Australia full of confidence.

Australia also arrive in Seattle on the back of a surprise 2-0 win over Turkey. The result means Australia could secure qualification with a game to spare.

"We know that we want to earn our respect," Popovic said.

"We know that by our performances we can put Australian football on the world map, and that's what we aim to do."

- Brazil looking for improvement -

Brazil defender Gabriel Magalhaes says the five-time world champions must move on quickly from their 1-1 draw with Morocco as they prepare to face Haiti.

"We know what we have to do. We know that we didn't have a good first match, but what we can expect from us is that we'll be really committed tomorrow and we're going to do our best to win," Gabriel said.

"It wasn't the match we wanted, but this is in the past and we've learned from it."

Head coach Carlo Ancelotti confirmed changes will be made to his starting lineup and urged his players to show resilience after a frustrating start to the tournament.

"Getting off to a good start is important in a World Cup, but the most important thing is that the team, rather than being perfect, has to be resilient," Ancelotti said.

Scotland, meanwhile, could move closer to a historic first World Cup knockout-stage appearance if they follow up their opening victory over Haiti with a positive result against Morocco.

Captain Andy Robertson said the squad is determined to make history.

"We want to be the first team to be able to do that for our country," Robertson said.

"It's obviously a nice feeling to try and do that."
