Age-old sports rivals Brazil and Argentina meet Saturday at the 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio de Janeiro. A chance to get closer to the medal round is at stake.
With so much on the line, Brazil's home crowd is likely to be raucous. Heck, it even booed Argentina during the opening ceremonies.
Croatia and Nigeria will also be in action. And Spain, which has unexpectedly struggled, takes on the group's only undefeated team: Lithuania.
On the women's side, 4-0 Australia will look to continue its dominance in a matchup against 1-3 Belarus. France, which sits at 3-1, can take a step closer to the knockout round with a win over Japan. The women of the host country are still looking for their first win of the tournament.
