Summary
Twelve projected 2026 World Cup group winners were published, with the United States the only favorite at plus-money odds — +130 to top Group D on home soil.
Eight of the 12 favorites are priced at -200 or shorter, underscoring how the expanded 48-team field has produced few truly balanced groups.
Group D is projected to hinge on the U.S.-Turkiye match on Matchday 3, with the Americans favored to take six or seven points against Paraguay, Australia and Turkiye.
Group K stands out as the main upset call: Colombia at +200 is picked ahead of Portugal at -210, helped by strong qualifying form and a potentially decisive goal-difference edge.
Elsewhere, the Netherlands are tipped to win Group F at -125, while Brazil, Spain, Germany, Argentina and England remain among the strongest group-stage favorites.
