FIFA ranking: July 2024 final preview

FIFA will publish the July ranking next Thursday July 18th.

I have included the forfeited WC-qualifier Congo - Niger. There is yet no decision taken by FIFA regarding the postponed WC-qualifier Cuba - Cayman Islands, so I excluded that one from this preview.

This weekend there are still 3 matches to be played: tonight the third place play-off Canada - Uruguay in the Copa America 2024 and tomorrow the two continental finals, in the Copa Argentina - Colombia and in the EURO 2024 Spain - England.

FIFA ranking: July 2024 probable ranking (II)

Here is the probable July 2024 ranking, to be published on Thursday July 18th. All results up until yesterday July 2nd are included. Still scheduled matches are: 


- EURO 2024, quarter finals and beyond;

- the Copa America 2024, the knock-out phase starting with the quarter finals;

- the last group stage matches in the COSAFA Cup 2024, plus the knock-out phase, starting with the semi finals.


The postponed WC qualifier Congo-Niger has last week indeed been awarded 0:3 to Niger, because of a no-show of Congo on June 6th in Kinshasa (Congo DR). This match is also included in this second ranking preview.
