FIFA will publish the next ranking only on August 12th. This means that all matches played in the extended June window for World Cup qualifying in AFC, CONMEBOL and CONCACAF, together with the CONCACAF Nations League Finals and all friendlies, plus all matches from three complete continental final tournaments (EURO, Copa America and Gold Cup) all will count for this ranking.
Here is a second preview of the probable August 2021 ranking.
This preview is calculated with elo-predicted results for all 74 currently scheduled and according to my method included matches, out of a total of 80 currently scheduled matches.
Already 281 matches have been played and will be included according to my method, out of a total of 286 already played matches.
In total this probable August ranking includes 355 matches.
See the probable results for a list of which scheduled and already played matches are included.

ReplyDeleteToday, La Gazetta dello Sport announced this ranking
ReplyDelete1. Belgium 2. Brasil 3. France 4. Italy 5. England
6. Argentina
Cheers
Ahmed
Well, they're not quite right:
ReplyDelete1) Belgium - 1822
2) Brazil - 1798
3) France - 1762
4) England - 1753
5) Italy - 1745
6) Argentina - 1714
And to complete the current top 10:
7) Spain - 1680
8) Portugal - 1662
9) Denmark - 1642
10) Netherlands - 1637
but with the CONCACAF Gold Cup still to play for I think Mexico and possibly even the US will enter the top 10.
11) Uruguay - 1635
12) Mexico - 1623
...
18) United States - 1586
Indeed, but La Gazetta dello Sport is after all an Italian newspaper :)
DeleteElo predictions show an 9th place for Mexico and 11th place for USA after the Gold Cup. But for that Mexico should stop wasting points against their group opponents...
Why on earth are Belgium still ranked No 1 in world?
