What is each team's World Cup story?

France

France are among the sport's elite: 16 World Cup appearances, two titles, in 1998 on home soil and again in 2018, and most recently runners-up in 2022, when they pushed Argentina to penalties. Few teams arrive at a knockout tie with this much recent pedigree.

Sweden

Sweden have appeared at 12 World Cups, and their peak remains the 1958 final, which they reached as the host nation before losing to Pelé's Brazil. They have never won the tournament, and a victory here would be their deepest run in decades. See the full squads and fixtures on the France and Sweden team pages.
