Placed in hat 3, Tunisia, 40th in the Fifa ranking, inherited a very complicated group on paper, the F, with the Netherlands, Japan and an opponent who will be known in March. It will be a European play-off between Ukraine, Sweden, Poland or Albania, which he will face at the start of the competition.
Sami Trabelsi’s players, who earned their ticket to this 2026 World Cup with a flawless performance where they did not concede a single goal, will therefore have a lot to do if they want to make their country’s history.

If the Carthage Eagles had created a great sensation by beating the French team (1-0, goal from Wahbi Khazri) during the 3rd group match without stakes in Qatar in 2022, they have in fact never managed to go beyond the first round during their six participations (1978, 1998, 2002, 2006, 2018 and 2022) until then.
The more precise schedule with match dates and stadiums will be known this Saturday.
