France leads Group I at the 2026 FIFA World Cup with a 75.5% implied probability, driven by its superior squad depth, attacking talent including Kylian Mbappé, and proven major-tournament pedigree. A 3-1 opening win over Senegal reinforced that edge. Norway sits at 21.5% after a dominant 4-1 victory over Iraq featuring Erling Haaland, giving the side momentum and a realistic path if it secures results against Senegal and France in the remaining fixtures. Senegal (1.6%) remains competitive despite the loss, while Iraq (0.1%) trails after conceding heavily and faces the steepest climb. Current trader consensus reflects France’s overall quality alongside Norway’s early form in a group where the top two advance.
