The top teams favored to win the 2026 FIFA World Cup are Spain, Argentina, England, Brazil, and France. Among them, Spain is considered the favorite due to their talented young squad and strong recent performances. Argentina, the defending champions from 2022, also have a strong chance to repeat their victory. England, Brazil, and France round out the leading contenders with competitive squads expected to perform well in the tournament. Spain's deep talent pool, Argentina's reigning champion status, England's strong team with players like Jude Bellingham and Harry Kane, Brazil's historical strength with emerging stars like Vinicius Junior, and France's combination of speed and skill with players like Kylian Mbappe make these teams the top picks for the 2026 World Cup winner.
Thus, while predicting a single winner is uncertain, Spain currently holds the best odds, followed closely by Argentina and other football powerhouses such as England, Brazil, and France.
