🇲🇽 Mexico

Mexico are CONCACAF's standard-bearer and a World Cup ever-present. A CONCACAF side, they enter the 2026 World Cup rated 1850 — 17th of the 48 teams — in Group A.

Quarter-finalists as hosts in 1970 and 1986, with a long run of Round-of-16 finishes. Technical and proactive, combining quick passing with attacking intent.

Drawn alongside South Korea, Czechia and South Africa, their toughest group test on paper is the meeting with South Korea. Our model projects them to finish 1st in the group and to reach the Round of 32.
