🇨🇴 Colombia

Colombia are a flair-rich South American side capable of troubling anyone on their day. A CONMEBOL side, they enter the 2026 World Cup rated 1910 — 12th of the 48 teams — in Group K.

Their finest World Cup run was the 2014 quarter-final, and they remain a fixture of CONMEBOL's upper tier. Quick, technical and rhythmic, with creativity through the middle and pace in wide areas.

Drawn alongside Portugal, Congo DR and Uzbekistan, their toughest group test on paper is the meeting with Portugal. Our model projects them to finish 2nd in the group and to reach the Round of 16.
