In a highly anticipated draw held on December 5th, 2025, FIFA has unveiled the group stage matchups for the expanded 48-team 2026 World Cup. Haiti’s national team, known as the Grenadiers, finds itself placed in the formidable Group C alongside football powerhouses Brazil and Morocco, plus European contender Scotland.
The five-time World Champion Brazilian squad enters the tournament with a 5.2% probability of lifting the trophy according to FIFA’s statistical models. Morocco, the impressive 2022 World Cup semi-finalists representing African football’s growing strength, carries a 1.1% chance of ultimate victory.
Haiti returns to the global football stage with immense national pride despite receiving a 0% probability rating from FIFA’s prediction algorithms. Scotland, recognized for their disciplined and competitive European style, registers a minimal 0.2% chance in the statistical forecast.
Historical match data reveals challenging precedents for the Caribbean nation. The Grenadiers have suffered four consecutive defeats against Brazil in senior team encounters, with the most recent meeting ending 7-1 in 2016. Notably, Haiti has never faced either Morocco or Scotland in any previous international fixture.
The complete tournament schedule featuring all 104 matches will be announced on December 6th, 2025, with final match details to be confirmed in March 2026 pending the outcome of remaining qualification playoffs. According to FIFA projections, Spain (17%), France (14.1%), and England (11.8%) currently rank as the three most probable champions of the 2026 World Cup.
