There are still six slots up for grabs for the 2026 World Cup.

They will be determined on Tuesday in the European and intercontinental playoffs.

This is comprised of four European teams and the winners of the two intercontinental playoff finals.

Kosovo will host Türkiye attempting to reach their first World Cup, and Italy must beat Bosnia and Herzegovina to avoid missing out on for the third successive tournament.

Sweden take on Poland and Czech Republic face Denmark.

Iraq (1986), The Democratic Republic of Congo (as Zaire in 1974), Bolivia (1994) and Türkiye (2002) are all looking to end lengthy absences from the World Cup.

DR Congo will play Jamaica, while Iraq take on Bolivia for the two spots from the intercontinental playoffs.
