How the predictions were made

Per-match win-probability comes from a logistic opponent-rating model with four signals (FIFA rank, Premier League squad footprint, host advantage, confederation strength). The champion board is a 5,000-run Monte Carlo over the full tournament bracket, using sampled goals from a Poisson process calibrated to the per-match probability.

Full methodology, formulas and calibration receipts: /world-cup-2026/methodology. Public scoreboard of model vs reality: /world-cup-2026/model-record.
