The top scorer in the Tunisian squad is Ali Abdi, who plays as a left-back with seven goals in 45 games, which will be a real cause for concern for the Eagles of Carthage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Tunisian midfield looks talented, though, with Hannibal Mejbri and Ellyes Skhiri playing within Europe&#8217;s top five leagues this season. The odds are certainly against Tunisia, especially in a group with Netherlands, Sweden and Japan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Read more: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/en\/outright-markets\/tunisia-world-cup-2026-odds\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Tunisia World Cup 2026 odds<\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-three-players-to-look-out-for-this-summer\">Three players to look out for this summer<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-hannibal-mejbri-burnley\">Hannibal Mejbri (Burnley)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Hannibal Mejbri will be pivotal for Tunisia at the 2026 World Cup, bringing vital Premier League experience from his 2025-26 season with Burnley. Despite Burnley&#8217;s struggles, the 23-year-old midfielder has demonstrated his creative value, registering a goal and four assists across 25 appearances (1,095 minutes). His 91% pass accuracy and robust defensive metrics &#8211; including seven ball recoveries and two tackles won in recent fixtures &#8211; highlight his ability to dictate play and disrupt opposition attacks. This data-driven impact makes him Tunisia&#8217;s essential midfield engine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-elias-achouri-copenhagen\">Elias Achouri (Copenhagen)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Elias Achouri will be crucial for Tunisia at the 2026 World Cup, offering elite European pedigree from his time with FC Copenhagen. The 27-year-old winger has proven his attacking output in the 2025-26 season, contributing three goals and three assists across 20 Danish Superliga appearances (1,315 minutes), plus a goal and an assist in seven Champions League matches. Internationally, his 28 caps and four goals demonstrate his reliability. This consistent, data-backed offensive production makes Achouri Tunisia\u2019s primary wide threat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-elias-saad-hannover-96\">Elias Saad (Hannover 96)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Elias Saad will be a vital asset for Tunisia at the 2026 World Cup, bringing dynamic attacking versatility from German football. The 26-year-old left-winger has demonstrated his creative value during the 2025-26 season, registering three assists across 12 appearances (eight starts) in the 2. Bundesliga while on loan at Hannover 96. Internationally, his impressive return of three goals in just six caps highlights his clinical edge. This data-backed efficiency makes Saad a potent offensive weapon.<\/p>\n\n\n<hr \/>\r\n<h2><strong>Bet \u00a310 &amp; Get \u00a330 in Free Bets with Bet365<\/strong><\/h2>\r\n<p>Not signed up to bet365 yet?
