With the action set to take place from the iconic Rose Bowl stadium in Pasadena, California, there have been weather warnings issued around the sheer heat. It's expected to be pushing 100 when these teams hit the field.

Mexico may already be assured of their place at the FIFA World Cup that they'll co-host in 2026, but preparations to make sure that it's a successful homecoming are already underway. Having appointed experienced manager Javier Aguirre (for the third time!) in July, they think they have the manager to make the best fist of that campaign. There's only one uncapped player in his first squad, though, so don't expect him to completely ring the changes.

New Zealand's bid to get to their first World Cup in 16 years starts in October, so this is a crucial warm up for Englishman Darren Bazeley's side. The good news is that he can lean on arguably one of the best All Whites squads ever, with talent from around the globe. His attack is spearheaded by quintessential 'big man up front' Chris Wood — the Nottingham Forest striker has scored more than any other Kiwi in history and will be eager to add to his 34-goal tally today.

It may be billed as a friendly, but this is looking like it should be a very competitive game during this international football window. So read on to find out how to watch Mexico vs New Zealand live streams where you are.
