Jordan to win World Cup 2026 odds
To say Jordan are among the underdogs at this World Cup would be an understatement. At around 2500/1, they’re among the longest priced nations of any qualified team at this stage.
In order to give that price some context, you can see that nations like the Republic of Ireland, Congo DR and Kosovo are available at a much shorter price despite not yet being qualified while fellow newcomers Uzbekistan are also priced at a shorter 2000/1. If Jordan were to achieve the unthinkable this summer, it would be undoubtedly the biggest shock in football, if not sporting history.
The reality is, just reaching the World Cup is a massive achievement for this nation that only entered qualifying for the first time in 1986 and are yet to win any of the regional tournaments they partake in such as the AFC Asian Cup and the Fifa Arab Cup.
Performances in those competitions have improved in recent years, but even picking up a solitary win in this group stage would be considered a huge success for the Jordanian population watching on, particularly given the strength of their opponents in the group stages.
