According to the Guardian, Fifa has confirmed that the top four ranked teams will be kept apart until the semi-finals at the 2027 Women’s World Cup, provided they win their respective groups. This rule, similar to the format used for the 2026 men’s World Cup, aims to prevent early clashes between top-tier teams. Currently, Spain, the United States, Germany, and England occupy the top four spots in the world rankings. The tournament draw will take place on 11 December in Rio de Janeiro, with seedings based on the rankings updated on 7 December. Brazil, as hosts, will be placed in Group A, with the opening match scheduled for 24 June at the Maracanã Stadium.
