The 2026 FIFA World Cup group stage is almost here — and there's a LOT to unpack. Adelia and Fares break down Groups G through L, covering every team, every storyline, and every group worth watching as the tournament kicks off.

From Belgium and Egypt in Group G, to Spain and Uruguay in H, France and Norway in I, defending champions Argentina in J, Ronaldo's Portugal in K, and England vs. Croatia in a loaded Group L — these six groups are packed with drama, dark horses, and must-watch fixtures.

Who's advancing? Who's getting upset? Let's get into it.

The World Cup is less than two weeks away. Adelia and Fares are kicking off Starting Eleven's 2026 FIFA World Cup coverage with a full breakdown of Groups A through F — 24 teams, a host nation under pressure, a group of death (or two), and a couple of squads nobody's sleeping on.

Who's flying under the radar? Which group is an absolute nightmare? And which teams are going home in the group stage when they really shouldn't?

It's been a week and Adelia still can't believe that Arsenal are Premier League champions.

After one of the longest, most nerve-shredding title races in recent memory, the Gunners lifted the trophy on the final day of the 2025/26 season — and Adelia is absolutely insufferable about it. Snark, meanwhile, is processing a season that ended with Chelsea in 10th place, no European football, and absolutely no excuses left.

We're breaking down the final matchweek in full: Arsenal's coronation, the Chelsea collapse that somehow got worse in the final stretch, and Tottenham doing what Tottenham do — surviving relegation by the skin of their teeth and acting like they won something.

It's also the last Premier League show for Snark as a regular co-host, at least for now. He'll be popping up during our World Cup coverage when he can make it, but this is the end of an era for the weekly rivalry format — and yes, he's going out watching Chelsea miss Europe.

38 games. One champion. And a Chelsea fan who has to sit with it all summer.
