All 72 group-stage matches. Drag the sliders to redefine the system. Cells show the actual FIFA rank / goals value and turn green when they pass the current threshold. Rankings: FIFA, 11 Jun 2026. Goals/game: each favorite's last 5 matches (friendlies + qualifiers + World Cup).
| Date | Kickoff (CT) | Grp | Matchup (Favorite vs Opponent) | Favorite rank | Opponent rank | Fav G/Game | Meets all? | Result (fav) |
|---|
Consistency rules: Favorite = lower (better) FIFA number in each match. "Top 15" passes when rank ≤ N (inclusive). "40 or worse" passes when rank ≥ M (inclusive — #40 qualifies). Goals threshold passes when last-5 goals/game ≥ value. A match "meets all" only if all three pass.
Snapshot: results through the morning of 21 Jun 2026. Four matches kicking off 21 Jun (Belgium–Iran, NZ–Egypt, Spain–Saudi Arabia, Uruguay–Cape Verde) are shown as upcoming. Goals figures for Spain, Belgium, Iran, Egypt, Uruguay, Japan, Netherlands are pre-21 Jun. ✦ marks six deep-tier teams (Australia, Ivory Coast, Panama, Czechia, DR Congo, Bosnia) whose last-5 sample is partial — these only affect rows if you raise the Top-N slider past ~27.
Kickoff (CT): all times shown in US Central Time (1 hour behind Eastern). The list sorts chronologically — by date, then by kickoff within each day (click "Date" or "Kickoff" to re-sort). Times for 20–27 Jun are exact; 11–19 Jun kickoffs are mapped to the standard daily slots in correct order. Two late games kick off at 11:00 PM CT and therefore fall on the previous calendar day in Central Time (Austria–Jordan on Jun 16, Tunisia–Japan on Jun 20).

Fixtures and dates are fixed by the bracket; teams fill in once groups finish (Jun 24–27). "prov" = the team currently occupying that slot in the live table above, with its FIFA rank — it updates as results change.
