Which teams are your (super) early favorites for 2026?

[Bobbcats]

Yeah, he's had those kind of games. More often than not he is looking very dangerous and making good opportunities happen for Lyon. I watch all Lyon matches and think he still has a good chance to be world class (noting there also Lyon supporters who have given up in him).

We'll see I guess. But I think I'm right

USA 8th best odds seems high to me

USA 8th best odds seems high to me

I guess people are predicting some kind of home country advantage. It's definitely high, but there you go.

I put some cheeky money on Norway. They might not even qualify, but Haaland, Odegaard and Hauge should be in or approaching their primes in 2026. At 100/1 seems worth a punt.

solid bet, if Haaland goes supersaiyan viking you never know.

[El Turco]

Hope Haaland gets his country there

reminds of Ibra and Shev, two ultra talents that played on crappy national teams almost their entire career. hope that's not that case but we'll see.

Gheorghe Hagi, Stoichkov, Weah and so many others throughout the years...

hagi played in some very good romania teams, early-mid 90s romania was like belgium of its time.

[Hoopstar23]

now looking at it... Argentina should have a good squad, if Messi decides to play in 2026 i still put them as one of the favorites even with Messi in a limited role but still playing at a high level, then they should be in the convo!
