World Cup Simulator is a free tool for predicting the FIFA World Cup 2026. You can tip the exact score of all 72 group-stage matches and watch the group tables re-sort live as you type. When the groups are complete, your personal knockout bracket builds itself, and you can carry your picks all the way to the final.
Why we built it
The 2026 World Cup is the first with 48 teams, 12 groups and a new Round of 32 — a format that's genuinely more complex to follow and to predict. We wanted a fast, clean, no-nonsense way to play out the whole tournament in your head, test scenarios, and settle arguments with friends, without ads-everywhere clutter or a mandatory sign-up just to start.
How it works
You can start tipping immediately as a guest — your picks are saved on your device. Create a free account with Google if you want to join private leagues, compare brackets with friends, and keep your predictions across devices. Predictions for each match lock at kickoff, so there are no last-second edits.
Everything is calculated with the real tournament rules: three points for a win, goal difference and head-to-head tiebreakers, the eight best third-placed teams advancing, and penalty shootouts in the knockouts. If you want the detail, our guides break down the format, the host cities and the tiebreakers in plain English.
Independent and unofficial
This is an independent project made by football fans. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or associated with FIFA or any official World Cup body, and all team and tournament references are used for identification only. It exists purely for entertainment — there is no real-money betting involved.
