The world cup draw will be in an hour!
Here are the draw pots for the FIFA World Cup 2026:

Pot 1

Canada, Mexico, USA, Spain, Argentina, France, England, Brazil, Portugal, Netherlands, Belgium, Germany

Pot 2

Croatia, Morocco, Colombia, Uruguay, Switzerland, Japan, Senegal, Islamic Republic of Iran, Republic of Korea, Ecuador, Austria, Australia

Pot 3

Panama, Norway, Egypt, Algeria, Scotland, Paraguay, Côte d'Ivoire, Tunisia, Uzbekistan, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, South Africa

Pot 4

Jordan, Cabo Verde, Ghana, Curacao, Haiti, New Zealand, UEFA Play-off A, UEFA Play-off B, UEFA Play-off C, UEFA Play-off D, FIFA Play-off 1, FIFA Play-off 2

How will they avoid a massacre between titans in the groups phase? I mean the pot 1 is: Canada, Mexico, 'murica, Portugal and the biggest lie ever who was leader of the FIFA world ranking for some years Belgium.

Colombia deserves a lot more than Courtois +10 team. Will we have a new world cup winner? Netherlands, is it time? Belgium? (lol).

Japan is getting stronger but still they need a lot.

Will Argentina have a world cup without a match against Mexico? Is this the world cup of Morocco?

I don't think any of the Central or South American teams stand a chance. Your star players will get kidnapped by ICE in the middle of the night and thrown in Guantanamo Bay.

Well, two week to the World Cup! Here there isn't a joy mood. What are your candidates? I think the strongest teams are Spain, France and England this time.

About Brazil, I think it's the weakest team in the last 50 years but still a threat. Like Argentina, both if they reach at least final quarters it will be a deception.

Will Mexico reach the quarters some day? What about Morocco, Portugal, Colombia, Germany, Netherlands?

As Italian, I'm afraid I cannot improve the situation  :D

But I think I can support my host country, Switzerland, just fine. Which is interesting, because I lived ten years in Germany and I have never held any feelings towards the German Mannschaft.

Which are the candidates to win the cup?

I am not so up-to-date on football teams like some years ago. I also do not see a clear favourite, nor stars as big as Messi and Ronaldo. Let's say:
* France: they seem to have good talent and no clear weakness.
* Argentina: might want to douple up on their trophy.
* Spain: they are the bookmaker's favourite so it is wise to keep them in my predictions.
