About

Cup Predictor '26 is a free tool for calling the 2026 World Cup before it happens. Rank all 12 groups, choose the eight best third-placed teams, then play out every knockout tie to the final — and export a clean image of your whole bracket to share.

It follows the real tournament format: 48 teams, 12 groups of four, the top two plus the eight best third-placed teams advancing to a new Round of 32, and the official FIFA allocation table that decides which third-placed team meets which group winner. If you're new to the format, the blog explains it.

There's no sign-up and no account. Your predictions are saved in your own browser, so you can come back and adjust them until kickoff. Follow results on the scores page as the tournament unfolds.
