2026 FIFA World Cup: Top Contenders to Watch
The 2026 FIFA World Cup in the US, Mexico and Canada will be the largest ever, with 48 teams battling for glory. A handful of sides stand out as early favorites. Argentina look strong as defending champions. Even with Lionel Messi entering the twilight of his career, the South Americans face Algeria, Austria and Jordan in Group J and are expected to top their section. Brazil and Spain bring world-class squads to the tournament. Brazil’s rich history and high FIFA ranking make them heavyweights in a group with Scotland, Morocco and Haiti. Spain’s technical prowess will be tested by Cape Verde, Uruguay and Saudi Arabia in Group H. France and England also demand attention. France’s attack, led by Kylian Mbappé and Antoine Griezmann, tackles Senegal, Norway and Iraq. England’s youthful side, featuring Harry Kane and Jude Bellingham, must navigate Croatia, Ghana and Panama if they hope to go deep.
