The World Cup 2026 has started and Group B of the competition consists of one of the co-hosts Canada. They are along with Switzerland, Bosnia-Herzegovina and Qatar, who complete the group.
The maximum matches of the group will be played in Canada, while the others will be played in the United States of America.
Group B is a fascinating mix of co-host ambition, European experience, and Asian flair. Co-hosts Canada will enjoy massive home support and look to make history under Jesse Marsch, with stars like Alphonso Davies and Jonathan David leading the charge.
Switzerland are the highest-ranked team in the group and bring consistency, defensive solidity, and key Premier League/Bundesliga talents such as Granit Xhaka and Manuel Akanji. They are many pundits’ favorites to top the group.
Bosnia and Herzegovina return to the World Cup with renewed energy, led by the evergreen Edin Džeko. They are physical, dangerous on the counter, and capable of causing major upsets.
Qatar, hosts of 2022, feature a blend of experienced players (Akram Afif, Boualem Khoukhi) and new talent. They will rely on technical quality and set pieces to progress.
