FIFA World Cup schedule 2022

The 2022 FIFA World Cup is just around the corner, and every country is accounted for. The group stage matchups have been set and we can begin to project who might be in the best position to advance to the knockouts.

During the group stage, there may be up to four matches per day, staggered throughout the day. For the sake of maintaining the integrity of the competition, only the matches that are played on the final day of the group-stage phase will overlap.

Every time zone will have the opportunity to watch matches at reasonable times throughout the day. Here is a summary of how the Qatar local kickoff times correspond to other time zones across the world.
