The two matches are Argentina against Saudi Arabia on November 22 and against arch-rivals Mexico on November 26.
"The most requested," Organizing Committee CEO Nasser Al-Khater told national news agency QNA on Wednesday night, reported by Super Sport.
Both matches will be played at the 80,000-seater Lusail stadium. The stadium will be used for the final match of the quadrennial event on 18 December.
Al-Khater did not provide details on how many tickets were sold. However, he confirmed the Argentina versus Mexico duel was sold out in the first round of online sales earlier this year.
