Twelve frontier models — GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, Llama, DeepSeek, Mistral, Qwen — predict every WC2026 match before kick-off. We compare them against the actual results and a Poisson-baseline model. The leaderboard updates every match-day.

  • Per-match win/draw/loss probabilities
  • Expected goals & exact-score guesses
  • Live leaderboard vs. real outcomes
  • Poisson + Elo baseline for sanity
  • Group-stage & knockout brackets
