Group C presents a fascinating collision of heavyweights and historic renaissances.
Five-time champions Brazil enter as the group’s undeniable alpha, boasting a proud history of appearing at every single tournament.
Now under the tactical wisdom of Carlo Ancelotti, Seleção combines a world-class defensive spine of Marquinhos and Gabriel with the devastating, Ballon d'Or-contending flair of VinÃcius Jr. out wide.

Chasing them down are reigning African champions Morocco - who will look to capture the magic of their historic 2022 semifinal run.
The Atlas Lions have shed their underdog tag, utilising the explosive overlapping runs of one of the world’s best right back’s Achraf Hakimi and the creative genius of Real Madrid's Brahim DÃaz.
The emotional heart of the group belongs to Scotland, making a raucous return to the stage after a 28-year absence.
Determined to escape the group stage for the first time in history, the Scots rely on traditional grit and the dynamic, high-scoring midfield engine of Scott McTominay and John McGinn, while they’ll be led by departing Liverpool left back Andy Robertson.

Rounding out the quartet is Haiti, completing an incredible 52-year Caribbean resurrection.
Playing with zero pressure and a dangerous counter-attacking blueprint, Les Grenadiers lean on the physical power of striker Wilson Isidor to embrace the spoiler role in a highly competitive section.
Expect an electric battle for the top spot between Brazil and Morocco, while a gritty Scotland and a fearless Haiti look to cause ultimate chaos.
