England vs. Mexico: The Road to the Round of 16

Mexico opened their World Cup 2026 campaign with a 2-0 victory over South Africa, followed by wins against South Korea (1-0) and Czech Republic (3-0), qualifying them as convincing group winners for the knockout stage. In the Round of 32, they delivered an impressive 2-0 performance against a highly-rated Ecuador – will England be next to fall?

While England is considered the favorite due to their immense squad depth, the home advantage could significantly boost Mexico. Furthermore, England has not been entirely convincing throughout the World Cup so far, with lackluster performances in the group stage against Ghana (0-0) and Panama (2-0). In the Round of 32, a potential embarrassing exit loomed against DR Congo before Harry Kane secured a 2-1 victory for the clear favorites with two goals in the final fifteen minutes.
