Tunisia
Eagles of Carthage
Tunisia are World Cup regulars who famously beat France in 2022 but have never advanced past the group stage. They combine North African flair with a disciplined defensive base.
Tunisia’s group path
Tunisia starts in Group F with Netherlands, Japan, Sweden. They enter the group as the #4 team by MatchupSim power rating, which makes the finishing position especially important: first place, second place and a possible third-place route can each send them into a very different round-of-32 matchup.

2026 outlook
Tunisia will need another famous upset to escape a tough Group F and reach the knockouts for the first time.
Prediction angles to test
Start with a favorites run, then test one aggressive version where Tunisia wins Group F and one conservative version where they finish lower in the table. Comparing those paths shows whether their best chance comes from group control, a softer runner-up route, or surviving as one of the best third-place teams.
