A Costa Rican mathematician, Giovanni Sanabria Brenes of the Technological Institute of Costa Rica (TEC), has created a model to predict the outcome of each team’s first match in the 2026 FIFA World Cup. The model calculates the probabilities of win, draw, or loss for every participating nation. Sanabria Brenes’s work offers a data-driven perspective on the initial stages of the tournament. Specific results for each team’s predicted performance are available following the model’s completion. This approach utilizes mathematical principles to forecast competitive sporting events. The model’s methodology and detailed findings are now accessible for analysis and review.
