If we talk about real chances of reaching at least the quarterfinals of the 2026 World Cup, the teams that today appear best positioned by squad level, ranking, recent experience and analyst projections are:G0930 said:
Argentina 🇦🇷
Current champion.
It maintains a very solid and competitive base.
It continues to appear among the main favorites in models and bookmakers.
World 2026 forecasts
France 🇫🇷
One of the most profound templates in the world.
Finalist in 2022 and with figures in full football maturity.
Spain 🇪🇸
European champion and identified by several models as the main candidate for the title.
Brazil 🇧🇷
He always appears among the top candidates.
It has a new generation of offensive figures.
England 🏴
He has been reaching decisive levels for several tournaments.
It has one of the most valuable squads in the tournament.
Germany 🇩🇪
It reappears among the strongest selections according to recent analyses.
And like Argentina 🇦🇷 I say: Let's go Let's go Argentina
We Will Win!!!!!!!!! 🇦🇷❤️💪💪🙏
As this will most likely be the last important NT tournament for Messi and CR7- the 2 players that defined the last ~20 years of this sport, I'm going to be a fan of their national teams... plus, it's not like they aren't on the list of the favorites to win it all as Argentina is the defending champions, while Portugal just won the UEFA Nations League (they beat Denmark, Germany and Spain to do it)... also, both teams have some of the best players in the World in their squad- definitely 2 teams to watch at this WC2026 🙂

Well that depends on how you define great. I don't think we will stand a chance against Argentina but the other two are easy wins.Risto234 said:
Me personally I think it would be great to see them in the quarter final...anything beyond is highly improbable.
The teams who will l perform really great are Spain , Portugal, France and Germany
Im not very familiar with the skills of the African teams but I know Egypt must not be underestimated. They win the African Cup often

I love that Argentina is in my country's group. I don't expect anything really from our boys, a remis would be great already.BillyR23 said:
But really looking forward to see Messi playing against the Austrian defense. He got old maybe we stand a chance 😀
Actually i wouldnt be surprised if from all african nations Egypt is the one who (heavily) underperfoms - they probably dont do as bad as Congo but all other african nations should easily have bigger impact on tournament than them ...G0930 said:
Since everyone is predicting a Spanish or French victory, I really hope that a team will win who the bookmakers currently consider the underdog. I would be particularly pleased to see the winning of the Brazilian national team coached by Ancelotti.
"I'm really excited for it too! If I had to pick the strongest contenders right now, I'd say France, Argentina, Spain, and England all have the talent and depth to go very far. France always seems to produce world-class players, Argentina has a winning mentality, Spain's young generation is impressive, and England has one of the deepest squads in the tournament.G0930 said:
As for a dark horse, I'd keep an eye on Portugal. They have quality in every position and could surprise a lot of people. If I had to make an early prediction, I'd say France or Spain have a great chance of lifting the trophy—but in football, one great tournament run can change everything. Who are you hoping wins it?"
Do you think there will be a surprise at the World Cup?
I'm not only thinking of the gold medalist here.
Norwegians, for example, are quite good.
I expect surprises from them. They are in the same group as the French.
Even the top brass can get together, and from there they can take two steps forward.
