I've just been having another think about that 2026 format. The design is that bad we could end up with the best teams meeting each other in the last 16 simply because of how the draw went. In the current format if you win your group you're more than likely going to avoid a favourite until the quarter final at the earliest. With the new format all the top teams should win their group and avoid each other in the round of 32 but after that is when it turns into a free for all.

It's a bit of an issue. I think they should go the same route that the ATP/WTA Tours go in tennis for at least the Pot 1 teams. In that pot, the top 4 are randomized into separate quarters, teams ranked 5-8 are randomized so that they would face the top 4 in the quarterfinals (barring any upsets) and then the other 8 teams are randomly selected to lead the other groups.
