This is a market on which teams will qualify for the 2026 FIFA World Cup. If at any point it becomes impossible for this team to qualify for the FIFA World Cup based on the rules of FIFA (e.g. they cannot reach the required number of points to advance from its group or qualify for playoffs), this market will resolve immediately to “No”. If the 2026 FIFA World Cup is permanently canceled or the qualifying stage has not been completed by September 30, 2026, 11:59 PM this market will resolve to “No”. The resolution source for this market will be FIFA. (https://www.fifa.com/en/tournaments/mens/worldcup).Hosts Canada, Mexico, and the United States automatically qualified for the expanded 48-team FIFA World Cup 2026, joined by 45 others through confederation qualifiers and play-offs. Final spots were clinched on March 31 in UEFA play-off finals—Bosnia and Herzegovina edging Italy on penalties, Sweden defeating Poland 3-2, Türkiye beating Kosovo 1-0, and Czechia outlasting Denmark on penalties—plus intercontinental triumphs by Iraq over Bolivia (2-1) and DR Congo over Jamaica (1-0 extra time). Surprises include first-time qualifiers Cape Verde, Curaçao (smallest nation ever), Jordan, and Uzbekistan, reshaping trader consensus on underdogs. With all berths confirmed, markets reflect these outcomes ahead of the June tournament draw.
