Teams in Group F
Group F overview
Group F's opener at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas — capacity 94,000 — will be the largest crowd of the tournament. The Netherlands under Ronald Koeman (in his second spell since 2023) face a Japan side that beat Germany and Spain at the 2022 World Cup.
Sweden under Graham Potter — appointed in February 2026 in a remarkable late salvage of their playoff campaign — bring Alexander Isak (Newcastle/Liverpool) and Viktor Gyökeres (Arsenal) as a strike pairing that scored 22 of the 27 Swedish qualifying goals between them. Tunisia under Sami Trabelsi at their third consecutive World Cup, building around the spine of Wahbi Khazri and Hannibal Mejbri.
The Netherlands open at AT&T, the heaviest favourites of the group at around 1.85 to top it. Japan second favourites at around 3.40, Sweden third at 5.00, Tunisia distant fourth.

Standings outlook & knockout path
Most likely winner: Netherlands (priced around 1.85). The deepest squad of the four, with van Dijk/de Vrij at the back and Gakpo/Depay attacking.
Most likely runner-up: Japan. Moriyasu's side beat Germany and Spain in 2022 and have only improved since.
Best longshot for second: Sweden. Potter's coaching plus Isak/Gyökeres top-tier attack makes them competitive against any side in the group.
Tunisia bottom is the modal outcome unless they can hold Sweden or Japan.
