An online poll conducted by TNT Sports has revealed an interesting preference among American fans ahead of the decisive World Cup 2026 playoff match. When asked who they want to qualify between Kosova and Turkey, 57.7% of respondents chose Kosova, while 43.3% favored Turkey.

The result comes just days before the March 31 clash in Prishtina. The winner of this matchup will join the United States, Paraguay, and Australia in Group D of the final tournament.

Kosova reached this stage after a dramatic 4–3 victory over Slovakia, showing resilience and fighting spirit. Turkey, on the other hand, is considered the favorite on paper due to its higher FIFA ranking, stronger squad depth, and extensive international experience.
