World Cup 2026 bracket for Group H

Group H's victor will enter the knockout stage on the __ half, slated to joust against the runner-up from Group J. They will be one of four sides to duel with a runner-up. The other eight group winners will face off with a third-place qualifier.

Conversely, Group H's runner-up will play the winner of Group J.

Group H's third-place finisher also figures to be in the hunt for a spot in the knockout rounds. If they finish with more points and a higher goal difference than the eight worst-performing sides in this year's World Cup, they can finish with one of three foes:

  • Winner of Group L
  • Winner of Group I
  • Winner of Group A

We won't know which third-place qualifiers will land in the knockout stages until the games are played. There are 495 mathematical combinations of third place qualifiers, all of which have been spelled out in advance. Every potential outcome can be found in Annex C (pg. 80) of the 2026 FIFA World Cup regulations.
