Play out the entire 2026 FIFA World Cup for yourself. This free simulator lets you predict every group-stage result, watch the 12 group tables update live, build the full knockout bracket from the Round of 32 to the final, and run thousands of Monte Carlo simulations to see each nation's odds of advancing or lifting the trophy. It covers all 48 teams, 104 matches, fixtures, standings and goalscorers — and pulls in live results automatically as the tournament unfolds.
The 2026 FIFA World Cup runs from 11 June 2026 (opening match in Mexico City) to the final on 19 July 2026 at MetLife Stadium in the New York/New Jersey area.
It is co-hosted by Canada, Mexico and the United States across 16 host cities — the first 48-team World Cup and the first hosted by three nations.
48 teams play 104 matches, expanded from the previous 32-team, 64-match format.
The 48 teams are split into 12 groups of four. The top two of each group plus the eight best third-placed teams advance to a Round of 32, followed by the Round of 16, quarter-finals, semi-finals and the final.
The top two teams in each of the 12 groups qualify automatically, and the eight best third-placed teams across all groups also advance to the Round of 32 — 32 teams in total.
