Prediction Of Indonesia's FIFA Ranking, Down After Failing To Qualify For The 2026 World Cup

The Indonesian national team is predicted to fall in the FIFA ranking ranks (doc. Indonesian national team).

JAKARTA - The FIFA Indonesia rankings are predicted to fall after failing to qualify for the 2026 World Cup. This situation occurred after the Indonesian national team lost 0-1 to Iraq in the Fourth Round of the 2026 World Cup Qualifiers.

These results not only made the Garuda Squad fail to appear in the 2026 World Cup, but will also experience a decline in the latest FIFA rankings.

According to the Football Ranking website, the Indonesian national team will drop three places to 122 in the world. Above Indonesia, there are Azerbaijan and North Korea which have both experienced an increase in ranking, as well as Malaysia, which sits in the 119th position in the world today.

The Indonesian national team has indeed lost points in line with the two defeats experienced in the Fourth Round of the 2026 World Cup Qualifiers. The latest FIFA ranking will be announced on October 23, 2025.

With a failure to qualify for the 2026 World Cup, the Red-White Team missed the opportunity to gain big points at the event to be held in the United States, Canada, and Mexico.

After failing to qualify for the 2026 World Cup, the Indonesian national team will undergo matches on FIFA Matchday and fill them with friendly matches that can add points to improve rankings. Before entering 2026, there was still one FIFA Matchday window in the November 2025 period.

However, so far there have been no clear plans for the FIFA Matchday agenda in November as the previous schedule is still focused on the agenda of qualifying for the Fifth Round of 2026 World Cup Qualifiers.
