The 2026 FIFA World Cup winner will most likely be a repeat victor.
Six of the seven countries with the shortest odds to win the World Cup have at least one championship in their history.
Spain, the 2010 champion, comes into North America as the slight favorite over two-time winner France.
Defending champion Argentina sits sixth on the odds list behind Spain, France, England, Brazil and Portugal.
The majority of the pre-tournament favorites have low odds to win their respective groups.
Not every game in the group stage will be easy for the favorites, as evidence by the match odds, but the expectation is that we see all of the big names in the knockout round.
