The 2026 FIFA World Cup will take place across North America in the biggest tournament in the event’s history.
That means Canada will have the opportunity to host several matches, with Toronto and Vancouver getting the honors. The Canadian men’s national soccer team will headline Group B, playing matches on both coasts.
While each Group B team will play at least one game in Canada, the full schedule is spread out to include games along the West Coast of the United States as well. And while the United States and Mexico will have more frequent matches throughout the tournament, Canadian fans will still get their fair share of action.
The 2026 World Cup will include 48 teams, with 32 advancing to the knockout stages, making it the largest field ever. Canada will be one of those teams, and the three others in its group will find themselves playing true road games at times.
Here’s a look at how Group B will shake out for the 2026 FIFA World Cup, including full schedules and fixtures.

World Cup 2026 bracket for Group B
Of the four teams in Group B, either two or three will move on to the knockout rounds, depending on the results. Both the first- and second-place finishers will advance, but the third-place finisher will be at risk of elimination, as only eight of the 12 third-place group finishers will move on.
The winner of Group B will face the third-place finisher from either Group E, F, G, I or J on July 2 in Vancouver. Group B’s second-place finisher will face Group A’s runner-up on June 28 in Inglewood, Calif.
If the third-place finisher in Group B advances to the knockout stage, it will face either the Group E winner or the Group D winner.
