2026 World Cup Predictions: Who Do You Think Could Win It | More Than Just Music UK

​

There’s always something special about a World Cup year. The build-up, the debates, the predictions, and the excitement from football fans around the world make it one of the biggest events in sport. The 2026 FIFA World Cup already feels different because it will be bigger than ever before, with more teams, more matches, and more countries believing they can make history.

​

Looking ahead to the tournament, there are a few teams that stand out straight away. France still look like one of the strongest sides in world football. They have experience, quality in every position, and players who know how to handle pressure on the biggest stage. Even when they lose key players, they always seem to have another top-level talent ready to step in.

​

England will once again go into the tournament with massive expectations. Every World Cup feels like a fresh chance for England fans to believe football might finally come home. The talent is definitely there, especially with younger players continuing to develop at the highest level. The biggest question will be whether they can handle the pressure in the crucial knockout games. Spain are another team that could dominate the tournament. Their style of football is built around confidence and control, and they seem to have found a perfect balance between experienced players and exciting young stars. If they build momentum early, they could easily reach the final stages. You can never write off Brazil either.

World Cups always feel better when Brazil are playing with confidence and freedom. They have the type of attacking players who can change games in seconds, and if they find consistency, they will be dangerous for anyone. One thing that makes the 2026 World Cup exciting is the chance of surprise teams making deep runs in the tournament. Recent competitions have shown that the gap between nations is getting smaller. Countries like Morocco, Japan, and Senegal have already shown they can compete with football’s biggest nations, and there will definitely be a few shock results along the way.

​

My prediction? I think France could go all the way again. They just seem built for tournament football. But as every football fan knows, World Cups are unpredictable. One moment can change everything, and that’s exactly why the tournament is so special.
