Anticipation has reached fever pitch, with the 2026 World Cup less than two hours away from kicking off at the iconic Estadio Azteca in Mexico City.

The 23rd edition of football's global showpiece begins with hosts Mexico facing South Africa, while also marking a historic shift as the tournament debuts its expanded 48-team format.

This new structure has opened the door for several emerging footballing nations, with Curacao, Cape Verde, Uzbekistan and Jordan all set to make their World Cup debuts.

While each of the 48 managers will be dreaming of a deep run and a place in the history books, some inevitably enter the tournament better equipped than others. Squad selection, tactical acumen and in-game management will prove decisive as the competition unfolds.

Here, Daily Mail Sport takes a closer look at all 48 head coaches, ranking them from the least likely to succeed to the very best...

34 – Graham Arnold (Iraq)

The Australian born manager brings a wealth of experience to an Iraqi side featuring in just their second World Cup. He managed Australia for six years between 2018 and 2024.

After leading Senegal to triumph in the 2023 African Cup of Nations as an interim boss, Thiaw was offered a permanent role and has coached his nation ever since

27 – Dick Advocaat (Curacao)

The 78-year-old manager is the oldest on this list. He has helped Curacao become the smallest nation ever to play at World Cup championship. He has previously managed a host of countries including, the Netherlands, UAE, South Korea, Belgium, Russia, Serbia and Iraq.

Dick Advocaat resigned as Curacao boss in February due to his daughter's health, but returned in May after she improved

Steve Clarke masterminded a 4-2 win against Denmark in qualifiers to send Scotland to the World cup on what was an incredible night at Hampden Park. This is Scotland’s first appearance since 1998.

25 – Graham Potter (Sweden)

Despite turbulent seasons at West Ham and Chelsea, the Swedish FA appointed Potter in 2025. Despite finishing bottom of their group in the qualifiers, they proceeded to the play offs thanks to their strong performances in the Nations League. Viktor Gyokeres dispatched from close range against Poland to win the game 3-2 in the closing stages.

18 – Vincenzo Montella (Turkey)

15 - Rudi Garcia (Belgium)

After Napoli sacked him just 16 games into his role, Garcia was hired by Belgium ahead of their World Cup qualifying matches where they topped standings. In a group they should have made light work of, they drew to North Macedonia twice and Kazakhstan with Wales hot on their tails.

14 – Stale Solbakken (Norway)

Known for his success at FC Copenhagen, Solbakken has taken the reigns of the Norway national team as their ‘golden generation’ of players travel to the country’s first World Cup in 28 years. Solbakken is a flexible, intelligent manager whose Norway side have been tipped by many as dark horses in this tournament.

13 – Marcelo Bielsa (Uruguay)

Bielsa began coaching Uruguay in 2023 after he was sacked by Leeds a year before. Labelled by Pep Guardiola as “the best-prepared manager” he’d seen in his life, Bielsa’s footballing philosophy has made his teams some of the most enjoyable to watch in the world.

12 – Zlatko Dalic (Croatia)

Since taking charge in 2017, Dalic has guided Croatia to a final and semi-final in consecutive global tournaments. The 59-year-old has taken Croatia further than any other manager has in the World Cup and given Croatians across the world the opportunity to dream.

11 – Hajime Moriyasu (Japan)

Moriyasu has been in charge of Japan for almost eight years. His side have won six of their last six international friendlies beating the likes of Brazil and England. He beat both Spain and Germany at the World Cup in 2022 as his side conquered ‘the group of death’. Japan are ones to watch at this tournament, and it is largely down to Moriyasu’s exciting style of play.

Hajime Moriyasu has instilled an exciting style of play in his lengthy spell as Japan boss

10 – Mauricio Pochettino (USA)

The former Tottenham, PSG and Chelsea boss will be looking to take host country USA further than any other coach has done at a World Cup campaign. Pochettino was in talks for a sensational return back to North London before the Tottenham appointed Roberto De Zerbi in March.

9 – Roberto Martinez (Portugal)

An FA Cup winner as the boss of Wigan Athletic, Martinez was knocked out of the World Cup in 2022 by Morocco. A golden opportunity wasted; however, Martinez believes Portugal can go all the way this campaign. Portugal have won 30 games of the 40 he has coached.

8 – Ralf Rangnick (Austria)

Nicknamed ‘The Professor’, Rangnick’s tenure at Manchester United ended in a way that put his managerial ability in a bad light. He won 1.92 and 1.94 points a game respectively at Leipzig in his two spells there and boasts the most impressive of these statistics with Austria, where he has won 1.98 points per game. His side topped a group that contained France and the Netherlands at the 2024 Euros.

7 – Ronald Koeman (Netherlands)

Ronald Koeman is in his second stint as Dutch boss. He will be hoping for a much happier end to a major tournament and not a repeat of the 2024 Euro Semifinal where Ollie Watkins came off the bench snatch a goal in the last minute of the game in the semifinal against England.

6 – Julian Nagelsmann (Germany)

The ex-Bayern Munich boss has confirmed that Manuel Neuer will come out of international retirement to feature for Germany as their first-choice goalkeeper in this competition. Germany have won nine of their last nine games under Nagelsmann. The young manager won the Bundesliga and two German Super Cups coaching Bayern Munich.

5 – Thomas Tuchel (England)

Appointed in 2025 by the English FA, Tuchel has made quite the statement by leaving some of England’s most technically gifted players at home. Cole Palmer, Phil Foden and Trent Alexander-Arnold were all out of the final squad. Tuchel has stressed that the World Cup is not solely about talent but about being a team.

4 – Lionel Scaloni (Argentina)

Scaloni was the man who guided Argentina to a World Cup win in 2022. A lot of the attention centred around superstar Lionel Messi as he finally got his hands on the trophy he had been chasing his whole career, but Scaloni’s role in returning glory to Argentina was huge. He will be hoping he can ensure his nation become the first to retain their World Cup title since Brazil in 1962.

3 – Didier Deschamps (France)

Deschamps and his French side are, as always, heavy favourites to win the World Cup. The former French midfielder will take charge of his fourth and final World Cup campaign as France manager before resigning from the role. He will want to finish his managerial career on a high, hoping to reach the heights he hit in 2018 when France destroyed Croatia 4-1 in the World Cup final.

2 – Luis de la Fuente (Spain)

Fresh from their triumph in 2024 when they won the Euros, Spain and Luis de la Fuente have their sights set firmly on the World Cup trophy. The Spaniards have not tasted glory in this competition since 2010 when an Andres Iniesta goal in the final clinched victory against the Dutch. Between 2023 and 2025, Spain went on an 18-game unbeaten run under their boss.

1 – Carlo Ancelotti (Brazil)

After a four-season spell at Real Madrid, ‘Don Carlo’ joined the Brazilian national team in May 2025 for his first taste of international football. At club level he leaves in his trail five Champions League titles, three club World Cup titles, five super cups, one Bundesliga, one Premier League, one Serie A title, one French league title, two la Liga titles as well as many more accolades.
