Tunisia will compete in Group F at the 2026 FIFA World Cup scheduled from June 11 to July 19, 2026, across the United States, Canada, and Mexico.

They share the group with the Netherlands, Japan, and a European playoff winner (Ukraine, Sweden, Poland, or Albania).

Tunisia has never faced the Netherlands in an official match, but the two nations have met three times in friendlies, with the most recent encounter ending in a 1-1 draw in 2009.

Against Japan, the most memorable clash was at the 2002 World Cup, when the Carthage Eagles fell 0-2 in the group stage.
