The Argentine national team will find out its group stage opponents for the 2026 World Cup this Friday during the draw, which will be held at the John F. Kennedy Center in Washington.
Led by Lionel Scaloni, one of the top contenders for the title, the team will be in Pot 1, making them seeded in their group and ensuring they will avoid the major powerhouses until at least the knockout stages.
The 2026 World Cup draw will be covered live by the Noticias Argentinas news agency and can be watched on DirecTV, TyC Sports, and FIFA+, the streaming platform of world football's governing body. The draw is scheduled to begin at 14:00 (Argentine time).
The national team qualified for the 2026 World Cup after their strong performance in the South American qualifiers, where they amassed 38 points and finished nine points ahead of second-place Ecuador.
