World Cup 2026 Group B is the weakest group in terms of current FIFA Ranking and % of FIFA Ranking, Switzerland are ranked the best at 19th. Only Switzerland directly qualified for the 2026 FIFA World Cup, with both Qatar and Bosnia & Herzegovina needing an extra stage of qualifying and Canada being hosts didn’t need to qualify at all. Only Switzerland have made it past the Group Stage of all these teams, so it’s a new adventure for at least one of the teams.

PREDICTIONS
Here’s where we put our money where our mouth is. Using all of the stats below and more, we have developed a H2H win rating for both teams for all Group Stage games. If the rating is within 5% of each other we’re calling a draw, otherwise the higher the rating the more likely to win. From there we come up with our prediction on the final table. All of that is available below for following, arguing or ignoring. We welcome any.
