Have you played the FOX Super 6 $1 Million Dollar World Cup Bracket Challenge still?
It’s a free competition where you pick which teams will advance to the knockout stages of each of the eight groups in the 2022 FIFA World Cup and then predict the knockout winners through the final.
Lots of entries are coming in, so don’t miss your chance to have fun and maybe even win a cool $1 million! You must enter before the start of the opening game on Sunday.
Compete with our featured brackets, including Alexi Lalas, Rob Stone, Landon Donovan, Carli Lloyd, Clint Dempsey, Stu Holden, Doug McIntyre and dozens more.
So far, contestants in the bracket are all in two countries to win it all.
Brazil and Argentina are the two teams most often chosen to make the final between competing brackets, with France and England rounding out the top four semi-final selections. Fellow tournament favorites Spain and Germany were selected in fewer brackets than the long-shot USA to make the semi-finals.
Brazil and Argentina are set to make the finals in more than 25% of the brackets, coming in at 28.2 and 27.7 percent, respectively — much, much higher than the United States (10.7%) and France (7.1%).
Let’s dive into how the numbers break down and check out some of our talented bracket picks below!
Group winners
- Netherlands (Group A): 78.3%
- England (Group B): 72.1%
- Argentina (Group C): 84.0%
- France (Group D): 77.1%
- Germany (Group E): 58.6%
- Belgium (Group F): 69.2%
- Brazil (Group G): 95.9%
- Portugal (Group H): 67.0%
Argentina and Brazil are not only the favorites to make the final in our brackets but also have relatively weak groups. So it makes sense that a large majority of brackets have those two teams advancing from their respective groups and winning them outright.
The Netherlands also benefit from a low-rated group that includes host country Qatar. Despite not being one of the favorites to reach the final or even the semi-finals, the Dutch are the next most common choice to win their group at 78.3%. England and France round out the top five.
And don’t worry about the USA – the USMNT is the most common choice to finish as the runner-up in Group B (58.4%) and make the knockout stage.

To advance to round of 16
- Brazil: 92.5%
- Argentina: 79.2%
- England: 66.7%
- France: 64.9%
- Portugal: 57.8%
- the united states: 45%
Brazil lead the way as the team picked the most to make the round of 16, with an overwhelming percentage of brackets in their favor.
Defending champions France surprisingly have slightly less support than England to reach the knockout stage. England have only won the tournament once, back in 1966.
The USMNT is also a popular team to make the round of 16, with 45% of contestants showing the young team some love.
Advance to quarter-finals
- Brazil: 68.9%
- Argentina: 67.7%
- France: 43.7%
- Portugal: 26.1%
- England: 25.2%
- the united states: 19.4%
To no one’s surprise, Brazil continues to lead the way, with defending champions France also gaining some popularity.
On the flip side, bracket competitors aren’t too confident in England reaching the quarter-final stage. The Three Lions move from third most likely to reach the round of 16 to fifth most likely to reach this stage.
Advance to semi-finals
- Brazil: 39.9%
- Argentina: 34%
- France: 28.2%
- England: 14.6%
- USA: 13.6%
The brackets are nothing if not consistent. Brazil and Argentina are still the top two teams backed to reach the final four. But it’s a surprise – the US is right up there with England as a popular choice to make the semis.
In other words, contestants are rooting for the USMNT to make a deep run.
Advance to final
- Brazil: 28.2%
- Argentina: 27.7%
- USA: 10.7%
- France: 7.1%
- Germany: 6.1%
Brazil and Argentina continue to shine, but perhaps in a show of our country’s pride, the USMNT is the third most chosen country to make the 2022 World Cup Finals.
All the magic starts on FOX starting Sunday, so make sure you fill your brackets before it’s too late. You don’t want to miss your chance at $1 million dollars!
