Who makes the final, the dream matchup, and a serious injury

With just 23 days to go before the FIFA World Cup 2026 kicks off, predictions about the winner have already begun. Meticulously, fans, experts, and specialized commentators are analyzing team by team to see which squad has the best shot at lifting the coveted FIFA World Cup Official Trophy. Even spiritual and esoteric beliefs are stepping onto the pitch. 

Bis the Medium shared her insights on the 2026 World Cup with ¡HOLA! Américas, delivering stunning predictions and revealing which national team could repeat its winning feat. She also shared that one of the most prominent players on the soccer scene could end up injured.

The 2026 World Cup is historic because it features three host countries: Mexico, the United States, and Canada. Additionally, it will be the tournament with the largest number of participating teams, featuring a total of 48 squads. The tournament kicks off on June 11, 2026, at the Mexico City Stadium with a match between Mexico and South Africa, and culminates on July 19, 2026, at the New York New Jersey Stadium.

Bis the Medium: Latinos are coming in “strong”

In this conversation, the psychic to the stars shared that Latino teams are coming in “going strong.” “I love all sports, but soccer gets my adrenaline pumping with so many kicks!” Bis the Medium specifically referred to two national teams: Argentina and Colombia. 

“What I can tell you is that Argentina is going strong; Colombia will perform excellently, and we will see surprises in this new tournament that is coming, we will see many surprises,” she indicated.

Will Argentina repeat its World Cup Victory?

At the Qatar 2022 World Cup, Argentina was crowned World Cup champion, with Lionel Messi serving as captain. When asked directly who would make it to the final, which will be played on July 19, 2026, at the New York New Jersey Stadium, she replied: “Argentina, Argentina.”

“Can Messi win again?” the microphones of ¡HOLA! Américas asked, to which Bis replied: “Yes!” The medium said that while they are not at their optimal peak as a team, she does see them in the final. “Even though they aren’t at their best, they will make it to the final.”

In addition to winning the World Cup in 2022, Messi was awarded the World Cup Golden Ball, becoming the only player in history to receive this honor twice (having previously won it in Brazil 2014). He also took home the Silver Boot as the tournament’s second-highest goalscorer with 7 goals, while France’s Kylian Mbappé took home the Golden Boot with 8 goals.

Could Cristiano and Messi face off on the pitch?

One of the dream matchups for soccer fans is a clash between Portugal and Argentina. “This year, there are going to be many surprises,” she said.

Although the World Cup schedule is already set, the reality is that the Portuguese and the Albiceleste will not face each other during the first three matches of the Group Stage. Therefore, it is possible that as the tournament progresses and teams are eliminated, they could square off in one of the later rounds, but nothing is set in stone.

One of the greats will get injured

Now, amid the predictions, Bis shared one that soccer fans surely will not like, as the medium predicted that one of the “greats” would end up hurt. “There is going to be a very major injury to one of the players people love the most.” Although she did not reveal names or nationalities, this prediction has left more than a few people uneasy.

That said, the psychic guaranteed that there would be exceptional matches. “They will be such excellent matches, so excellent because the players are coming in highly prepared now.”
