Team GB face Uruguay (19:45 BST) in the second match of a double-header knowing a win will see them return to Cardiff on Saturday for the quarter final.
Fans are being urged to turn up early if they need to collect tickets and not bring bags which would delay entry.
Extensive road closures will be in place around Cardiff.
Welshman Ryan Giggs captains Team GB, with Craig Bellamy Joe Allen, Aaron Ramsey and Neil Taylor also in the squad.
