World Cup 2026 Group K: Portugal, Colombia, DR Congo and Uzbekistan Odds

Get BetMGM odds and official squads for Group K. Bet on Portugal, Colombia, DR Congo, Uzbekistan, and top player props.

Group K is one of the richest in storylines for the opening round. Portugal arrives with Cristiano Ronaldo experiencing his sixth World Cup – a historic milestone. Colombia features strong momentum coming off a runner-up finish in the Copa America and stands as the primary candidate to accompany the Lusitanians into the knockout stages. Completing the group are two unprecedented narratives: DR Congo returns to the World Cup stage after an absence of over 50 years (since 1974), and Uzbekistan makes its absolute debut in the competition under Italian football icon Fabio Cannavaro.
