Netherlands enter Group F as the clear frontrunners in trader consensus, reflecting their higher FIFA ranking near the top ten, greater squad depth, and proven experience in major tournaments compared to the rest of the field. Recent March friendlies, including a win over Norway and a draw with Ecuador, reinforced their attacking options while highlighting occasional defensive lapses. Japan sits second on the back of impressive recent results, including victories over Scotland and England, which have elevated their form and confidence heading into the June group stage. Sweden and Tunisia trail further back, with the former buoyed by a dramatic playoff qualification under new coach Graham Potter and the latter relying on defensive organization from their latest friendlies, though both face steeper challenges against the group’s top sides.
