Resolution criteria

This market will resolve to "Yes" if the Portugal national football team wins the 2026 FIFA World Cup. The official confirmation will be based on the final match results published by FIFA on their official website. (en.wikipedia.org)

Background

The 2026 FIFA World Cup is scheduled to take place from June 11 to July 19, 2026, across 16 cities in the United States, Canada, and Mexico. This tournament marks the first time the World Cup will feature 48 teams, expanding from the previous 32-team format. (fourfourtwo.com)

Portugal is placed in UEFA Group F for the World Cup qualification, alongside Armenia, Hungary, and the Republic of Ireland. The teams will compete in a round-robin format from September to November 2025. The group winner will qualify directly for the World Cup finals, while the runner-up will advance to the second round (play-offs). (en.wikipedia.org)

Considerations

Portugal has a strong footballing history, including winning the UEFA European Championship in 2016. However, as of July 2025, the team must first secure qualification through the UEFA Group F matches scheduled for later this year. Their performance in these qualifiers will be crucial in determining their participation and potential success in the 2026 World Cup.
