The race for the 2026 World Cup in the CONMEBOL region is heating up after eight rounds of matches. Argentina currently leads the pack with 18 points, showing strong form despite two losses. Colombia follows closely in second with 16 points, remaining unbeaten so far. Uruguay, Ecuador, and Brazil are also in the top five, but Brazil is underperforming with 10 points, an unusual struggle for the five-time world champions. Venezuela is proving to be a competitive force this time, currently tied with Brazil on points but behind on goal difference.

Brazil’s inconsistent results—marked by three losses—have raised concerns, making their qualification less secure than usual. Meanwhile, teams like Bolivia and Venezuela, traditionally the region’s underdogs, have been more competitive, with Bolivia managing three wins so far. Venezuela is hoping to qualify for its first-ever World Cup.
