Over the past several months here at State of Soccer TV, we’ve been hard at work preparing, researching, and building what we believe is one of the most comprehensive World Cup resources available for fans.

Now that the 2026 FIFA World Cup has officially kicked off, we’re excited to share all 48 of our World Cup Team Previews along with our Group Preview videos. 

Whether you’re a lifelong supporter who follows the game every week or someone tuning in for their very first World Cup, these short-form previews are designed to help you quickly understand every nation competing in the tournament.

What You’ll Learn in Every Team Preview

Each video serves as a crash course on a participating nation and covers:

• The history of the country’s national team
• Previous World Cup appearances and successes
• Legendary players and national team icons
• Current stars and players to watch
• Key storylines entering the tournament
• What to realistically expect from the team in 2026

By the end of each preview, you’ll have a much deeper understanding of the nation, its football culture, and its chances of making a run at World Cup glory.

Group Previews

In addition to our individual team breakdowns, we’ve also created comprehensive Group Preview videos that analyze each group, discuss the major contenders, identify potential dark horses, and provide predictions on who could advance to the knockout stages.
