The World Cup's expanded format brings 16 more teams to the field and sets the stage for a 32-team Knockout Stage bracket unlike any other.

A 17-day sprint through the group stage will determine the bracket, and the action is already well underway.

Winning is a simple enough way to ensure the most advantageous spot in the Knockout Stage, but it isn't always that simple. When wins, losses and draws alone aren't enough to determine a group's standings, the following tiebreaking procedure will be used:

Overall goal differential: whichever team has the higher margin between how many goals they score and allow.

  1. Total goals scored: whichever team scores the most goals in the group stage.
  2. Head-to-head points: most points in group matches when the teams tied in the standings went against each other.
  3. Head-to-head goal difference: the highest margin of goals scored/against in group matches when the teams tied in the standings went against each other.
  4. Head-to-head goals scored: most goals in group matches when the teams tied in the standings went against each other.
  5. Highest team conduct score: a score that is diminished as team players/personnel get carded.
  6. Higher FIFA/Coca‑Cola Men’s World Ranking: the team with the higher international team rank will move on. If the teams somehow have the same ranking, the most recent past edition of the rankings will be examined.

With that in mind, here is a look at the live standings for every group in the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
