This World Cup interactive visual shows you all the important numbers. It starts with international soccer/football rankings from The Power Rank.

This method takes the scores in games and adjusts for strength of schedule. The Power Rank can not only rank teams but also offense and defense. These rankings feed a simulator that plays the World Cup 10,000 times. By counting the number of times an event happens, like the United States wins Group G, we obtain the probabilities for certain events.

Unlike most sites, we don't want you to go blind reading these numbers in a table. In collaboration with Andrew Phillips at Chartball, we created this interactive visual with World Cup probabilities.

Hover over a team name to see the odds that they advance through the stages of the competition. The group of circles closest to the team name corresponds to the probability of winning the group. The next closest circles correspond to second place. For the round of 16, a team can enter this stage of the competition via two routes: winning and placing second in the group.

Hence, each team has two probabilities for the round of 16. The gray lines show which circles correspond to which scenario. Each team also has two probabilities for the quarter and semi-finals for the same reason. Hover over the circles at any stage of the competition to see the corresponding team. The visual will be updated each night after the completion of the matches.
