World Cup 2026 is finally underway after months of waiting, as Scotland already have their first win after beating Haiti 1-0 at the weekend!
The biggest tournament in World Cup history, there are 48 nations competing over 12 different groups. However, only one of them can be the winner when the final rolls around on July 19 in New Jersey.
Argentina are the reigning champions, having won the tournament in Qatar 2022 with a dramatic penalty shootout win over France, but can they reclaim their trophy in North America this summer, or will there be a new winner crowned?
Spain last lifted the trophy in 2010. Can they repeat the trick 16 years later? Could France get their revenge for their 2022 defeat? Can England end their tournament pain? Could football powerhouses Germany return to the top table in perfect fashion by winning the tournament back-to-back group stage exits? Who knows, maybe even Scotland can shock the world.
Here are the latest odds for the World Cup 2026 - including Scotland, England, Spain, France and more*.
