Monday could end with half of the 48 teams secured for the 2026 World Cup.
An African representative will be known in the coming hours. And two European teams may secure their spot early.
Cape Verde or Cameroon?
The small island of Cape Verde, with just over 500,000 inhabitants, can confirm its unprecedented qualification if it beats Eswatini, the bottom of Group D, at 1 PM (Brasília time).
The country, which has Portuguese as its official language, can even advance without a win. But for that, it would depend on Cameroon stumbling against Angola.
If Cape Verde does not win, and Cameroon defeats Angola, the spot will go to the traditional Cameroonian team.
European duo tries to confirm spots
Switzerland is unbeaten in Group B and can secure its spot if it beats Slovenia away and Kosovo does not defeat Sweden, also away.
France is another team that can secure its spot this Monday. But the mission, in theory, is a bit more difficult.
Without Mbappé, the French need to defeat Iceland away and hope that Ukraine does not defeat the bottom team Azerbaijan.
All matches take place at 3:45 PM.
