Hungary vs France Euro 2020 time, date, channel

The Hungary vs France Euro 2020 game starts today (Saturday, June 19) at 2 p.m. BST / 9 a.m. ET / 6 a.m. PT. In the U.S., it's available on ESPN. In the U.K., you can watch on BBC. Full channel details below.

The Hungary vs France live stream opens another day of Euro 2020 action. This match will see Hungary attempt to clear the bottom of Group F, but they'll have to beat the World Cup 2018 winners to do it.

France are the bookies' favorites to take the Euro 2020 trophy too, coming into this tie on the back of a win against Germany and wielding some of the best talent in the sport. From Raphaël Varane in defense to recent Champions League winner N'Golo Kanté controlling the midfield, along with superstar Kylian Mbappé up front, France have quality everywhere.

Hungary, meanwhile, will need to shake off a 0-3 loss at the hands of Portugal if they're to keep their Ro16 dreams alive. However, there were some spirited showings in that match — like Szabolcs Schön's disallowed goal, which would have given Hungary the initial lead. With that same battling tendency, anything could happen against France.

The teams for today's match have now been announced, so here's how they line up: 

Hungary (3-3-2-2): Gulacsi; Botka, Orban, Attila Szalai; Nego, Nagy, Fiola; Kleinheisler, Schafer; Adam Sallai, Sallai.

France (4-3-3): Lloris; Pavard, Varane, Kimpembe, Digne; Pogba, Kante, Rabiot; Griezmann, Benzema, Mbappe.

Hungary vs France begins today (Saturday, June 19) at 2 p.m. BST (9 a.m. ET / 6 a.m. PT). You can watch the live stream for free, regardless of where you are.
