Early World Cup 2026 Picks

With the draw now made, teams can begin to plot their way through the tournament next summer. We like the chances of Portugal at the odds available. Boosted by a deep squad, they will have a perfectly suited game for the hot climates expected across North America.

They should have few issues in navigating the opening round, before all eyes will be drawn to a potential knockout clash with Lionel Messi’s Argentina.
