2015 FIFA Women’s World Cup, 4 p.m. on FS1: The group stage complete, the 2015 FIFA Women’s World Cup begins its round of 16 today with two games: Germany takes on Sweden at TD Place Stadium in Ottawa, followed by an evening tilt between China and Cameroon from Commonweal­th Stadium in Edmonton. Six more R16 games take place through Tuesday, with the eight winners advancing to the quarterfin­als late next week.

Movie: Gone Girl, 8 p.m. on HBO 11:35 p.m. on HBO: Adapted by Gillian Flynn from her own best-seller, director David Fincher’s well-spun screen version was one of 2014’s most-discussed films. A man’s (Ben Affleck) wedding anniversar­y is marked by his wife’s (an Oscar-nominated Rosamund Pike) disappeara­nce, and as the investigat­ion proceeds, he looks more and more like a suspect ... with his attitude definitely not helping his case. The superb cast also includes Tyler Perry, Neil Patrick Harris, Carrie Coon (“The Leftovers’’) and Kim Dickens (“Sons of Anarchy’’). Movie: Here Comes Mr. Jordan, 8 p.m. on TCM: Remade very successful­ly later as “Heaven Can Wait,’’ this 1941 comedy-fantasy stars Robert Montgomery as prizefight­er Joe Pendleton, who is sent back to Earth in another man’s body after a celestial screw-up ends his life 50 years too soon. Evelyn Keyes, Claude Rains, Edward Everett Horton and James Gleason co-star.

Movie: Perfect Match, 9 p.m. on HALL: As they try to coordinate the wedding of an indecisive young couple, rival planners Jessica Summers (Danica McKellar, “The Wonder Years’’) and Adam Parker (Paul Greene, “Bitten’’) clash relentless­ly, but — this being a romantic comedy — the bickering pair begins to strike some amorous sparks while pulling together a perfect day for the bride and groom. Linda Gray (“Dallas’’) also stars in this 2015 TV movie.
