There are several users who consider these predictions to be true, below we have broken down everything about whether these predictions are true or they are mere speculations.
Are The Simpsons World Cup 2022 Predictions True?
As per a prediction that currently going viral on social media platforms, The Simpsons episode predicted a Mexico vs Portugal final in the 2022 World Cup. However, this claim is not true at all. This scene is taken from an episode in Season 9 called “The Cartridge Family” where Homer and his family can be seen watching a TV.
During this scene, a commercial comes on the TV that advertises a football match that will determine “which is the greatest nation on Earth” between Mexico and Portugal.
This episode was also aired in November thus, players today are linking it to the 2022 World Cup. Besides this particular coincidence, the episode has not talked about any particular date.
Also, this is not the first time this episode is being linked to a world cup. Earlier in 2014 and 2018, the same rumors flooded the internet referring to this particular episode of the Simpsons.
Another similar claim that too relates to the Simpsons has added that ‘The Simpsons predicted a Germans vs Brazil 2022 World Cup final in which the European side wins’.
This claim comes from the Episode 15 of season 25 which is titled “You Don’t Have to Live Like a Referee”. In this episode, Homer becomes a referee at the World Cup in Brazil.
In this episode, Homer is approached by gangsters who attempt to bribe him to let Brazil win, but Homer decides to stay neutral. However later, he accepts the bribe and fixes the game so that Brazil wins. But eventually, a Brazilian player called “El Divo,” who is a parody of Neymar gets an injury.

Later in this episode, Homer listens to Lisa and calls “no penalty,” denying the penalty to Brazil thus Germany wins the game.
Here again, the episode has not talked about any particular date so, it doesn’t relate to the current world cup.
Though both predictions make no sense, several Twitter users are relying on it already. Here is how users have talked about these claims on Twitter:
One person wrote, “The Simpsons predicted Portugal vs Mexico in the World Cup final Idk about Mexico but I believe in Portugal”.
Another wrote, “Catch ‘Em if You Can – Homer and Marge travel to Miami for an impromptu second honeymoon, leaving Bart, Lisa, and Grampa to track them down.”
“You Don’t Have to Live Like a Referee – The Simpsons travel to Brazil when Homer serves as the referee for the World Cup”, wrote another user.
“The Simpsons predicted Mexico vs Portugal for the World Cup this year. Prolly should bet some money lol”, wrote one.
“One of The Simpsons episodes predicted Mexico and Portugal to go to the final game for the World Cup 2022. Let’s see if it will come true”, says another.
