How to Watch Canada vs. Bosnia & Herzegovina on TV, Live Stream-World Cup

Canada hopes to secure its first ever World Cup win, at the seventh attempt no less, when hosting Bosnia & Herzegovina in its tournament opener on Friday.

The Canucks have lost all six of their previous World Cup fixtures, including a hattrick of disappointing defeats in Qatar almost four years ago. They now have the chance at redemption, potentially achieving a historic feat at BMO Field.

Jesse Marsch's men are in strong form ahead of the tournament and have avoided defeat in their last eight friendlies, but Bosnia & Herzegovina will offer a solid test. The Europeans may be 34 places below Canada in the FIFA rankings, but they have an organized defensive unit and several difference-makers in offense.

An intriguing battle lies in wait. Here's how to tune into it.

Canada will wait six days before its second fixture, which takes place at BC Place in Vancouver against Qatar. It finishes its group stage campaign against tough opposition in Switzerland on June 24 and will not want to enter the clash needing a result to qualify.

The Swiss are next up for Bosnia & Herzegovina on June 18, followed by a clash with Qatar in their Group B finale.
