Germany World Cup 2026 chances

From 3.5% now, Germany's number moves with every match — a group-stage upset re-shrinks it; a clean win against an in-form opponent expands it. Onside re-runs a 10,000-simulation Monte Carlo on every result so the chance number you see here is the most current model snapshot, not a pre-tournament freeze.

Germany's route to the final

Group stage first, then a six-game knockout to lift the trophy. Onside's knockout simulator shows the most likely opponent at each round; the bracket below traces the full Monte Carlo path for Germany.
