Other Games - 2026 FIFA Men’s World Cup Edition (+ warm-up matches): Villa-watch

[Dave]

According to my eight year old, there's a pretty decent chance of R32 match-ups between USA / Iran and Argentina / Uruguay.

Both of those would probably be good fun.

Haven't seen Uruguay for a few years, probably since the last World Cup, but noticed they now have Bielsa as manager. Hopefully they will be fun to watch.

Little simulator thing here if you want to work out who is likely to play who:

I got USA v Iaran, Argentina v Uruguay and Scotland v Mexico. That latter fixture would be tasty chez Ealing.

Suspect the weather would favour Mexico against our brave Tartan boys.
