World Cup Qualifying – Latest Scores, Fixtures & News

Everyone wants to know who’s on track to make the World Cup. Here you’ll find simple tables, quick scores and the biggest talking points from every confederation. No fluff, just what matters for you to follow the road to the tournament.

Current Standings and Points

Each group’s table is updated as soon as the referee’s whistle ends. You can see who’s leading, who’s safe and who’s still fighting for a spot. In Asia, the top two teams in every group earn a direct ticket, while the best third‑place teams drop into the playoff. In Europe, the top two move on automatically and the third‑place teams enter a new play‑off round.

North America’s CONCACAF uses a final‑four format: the winners of the two final‑four groups qualify, while the runners‑up head into an inter‑confederation play‑off. Africa’s CAF offers the top two from each group a direct entry, with the third‑placed sides battling for a single extra place.

South America’s CONMEBOL is the simplest – the ten teams play home‑and‑away, and the top four go straight to the World Cup. The fifth‑place team meets a play‑off opponent from another region.

What to Watch in the Next Rounds

Look out for the upcoming match‑day where a few groups decide their fate in a single game. In Europe, Group B’s clash between two unbeaten sides could lock in a ticket or push one team into the play‑offs. In Asia, the race for the best third‑place spot will tighten as goal difference becomes crucial.

Key players to track include the veteran striker leading his nation’s attack, the goalkeeper pulling off surprising saves, and the young midfielder who’s already scoring in his first senior start. Their performances often swing a group’s destiny.

Fans also love the drama of delayed matches. Weather postponements, travel issues or disciplinary suspensions can reshuffle fixtures, giving a team extra rest or forcing a congested schedule. Stay alert for any fixture changes that could tip the balance.

For those betting or just bragging rights, the over/under goal line is a quick way to gauge how open a game will be. Historically, play‑off matches produce more goals, while low‑ranking clashes can be tighter.
