I think it is too early to make such predictions.
Both Italy and Portugal played poorly in the final of the qualifications and thus put themselves in a very difficult situation now.
The team that recovers sooner psychologically from the shock of playing in additional qualifications will have an advantage in the mutual meeting.
I personally would like Italy to go to the World Cup because they failed to qualify for the World Cup in Russia 2018 but it will be very difficult for them because they will have to play away in Portugal.

Portugal is the host of the group? I tried searching for venues but couldn't find it - if true, that is a huge bonus to Portugal.

I feel that they are a better team than Italy even without it and if they also have the home advantage, they have to be considered as favorites for the top spot.

Do you know who the other hosts are?

It looks like Turkey have the most difficult draws in the play-offs. Because they are going to compete with Portugal first. Even if they somehow beat Portugal, they are going to have a game against the winner of the Italy v North Macedonia draw. And it can be clearly seen that Italy would eliminate North Macedonia very easily. Grin

So the next opponent for Turkey would be them. Therefore I think that Turkey have a quite low chance to join the World Cup.

Yes, I also think that Italy is going to be in the top spot because they have played well and deserve to be in the world cup. And I think I will keep Portugal on the second spot because Portugal is honestly my favorite team among the others to qualify for the world cup.. and I would also really like to see Ronaldo in the world cup.

I think both teams have equal chances of qualifying and to be honest, I want Portugal to qualify a lot more than Italy because I'm big fan of Ronaldo and as like you I really want to see Ronaldo playing in the world cup. Maybe just for the sake of football fans but it is what it is, Portugal has to qualify. This is the potentially last World cup for Cristiano Ronaldo.

I would also like to see Cristiano Ronaldo in the world cup. But to be honest, they don't have much of a chance against Italy. They easily beat Turkey in the first match. But in the final, it will most likely be Italy rivals. I think Italy will go to the world cup I think .

Portugal is definitely stronger than Turkey. But don't think Turkey is weak. They are probably a bit off form now. But in past Turkey has surprised us by showing us a lot of great gameplay. Turkey has a good enough squad. If Ronaldo fails to perform in this match for some reason, then Turkey has a chance to win.

If we were talking about the Turkey we watched against Netherlands and lost by 6-1, I would say that they are really weak. But they are not performing like that anymore as far as I see. They improved their performance in their last three group games. And if they play really focusedly against Portugal, I think we can watch a really competitive game. Maybe Portugal would still be one step ahead but at least Turkey would fight back against them.

I know that Turkey has conceded a humiliating 6-0 defeat against the Netherlands. I watched the match. But in the previous match against the Netherlands, Turkey had won 4-2. Now the players have lost form. But I will not call the Turkish team weak. They can ignite at any time. If the match strategy is good, they have the ability to beat the Portugal team.

Meeting Turkey, I don't know if it was bad luck for Portugal or luck, because even though Turkey lost to the Netherlands in the group stage with a score of 6-1, to be honest, Portugal must be very wary of Turkey's game later, because Turkey could play quite crazy against a great team from them , I think in the play-off turkish will give a surprise for portugal and as far as I remember, so far ronaldo has never been able to score against turkey in friendly match and euro cup.

I think in turkey vs Portugal, I will say Portugal wins the match 100%. But since the last loss against the Netherlands, they have improved their game and looked better. So yes even though turkey might play better but I still think that Portugal will win that match, I placed my bet for Portugal with @1.43 odds.

Portugal is much better than Turkey in quality I am thinking it's not easy for them to win against them but still it is very long way to talk about this because first match is going to play 25th March 2022 and it is playing at Portugal so where are you placing this bet because it has never been good to place bet too early last time we have match between Portugal vs Turkey at Portugal which was won by Visitors 1 - 3, so any result is possible even it is very hard game please check before placing any bet about this match.

Now we have some long holiday from these International matches and just last round is coming Champions League matches with 2 months gap many possibilities and changes can happen.

I've made this just after going through an article that describes the construction of these stadiums costing deaths of more than 65000 migrant workers.

When we talk about World Cup and football we should also remember the soul to RIP. Another thing, the government haven't revealed any information and it isn't ready to talk about it. More people's dreams have got killed within this stadiums, because migrant workers dream of making a better life and to help the family to grow to next level of life work day and night. Once life is lost, who is gonna take care of families that depend on these migrants. Football players are getting paid in millions and billions.

The Euro 2020 which ended a couple of months ago has given us some insights about teams that may perform well in the world cup next year. Although both Germany and Netherlands got eliminated in the competition, they played some really good football - Germany especially.

On the mentioned Germany elimination I think they got unlucky at the end, or maybe they got under too much pressure for not scoring England before, what has been a tradition for decades (the last time Germany had lost to England in major tournaments was in 1966 - World Cup final). England took the opportunity and scored twice on the final stage of the match (75 min. and 86 min), although the game had been balanced by that moment.
The problem is also that Germany lost golden chances of scoring, even though they reached so close. But I still believe their potential for the next World Cup, and it's important to notice each championship is a unique championship: sometimes teams which play really good at a competition, joins the next one with a completely new performance, which might be inferior.

Smaller teams will be happy that the knockouts are 1 game only. All of them will fancy their chances a bit more now - in 2-headed knockouts the big teams have more time to correct eventual mistakes.
Here - an early red card or a stupid penalty - or an injury to a player after 3 substitutes have been made all come into focus a lot more and the chances of progress drop for big teams.

I agree with you. It will be good for small teams. If they have good luck, maybe they can beat the big team and advance to the next round. If two matches were to be played, the big teams would try to perform well in the second match after a poor performance in the first. It would have been more difficult for smaller teams to qualify for the World Cup.

@cryptofrka, Yes, I absolutely agree with you because as there is only one game in the knockout stage the smaller teams will try their level best to achieve at least a draw. But they will surely go for the win in that match. I think this could be a reason for some upset.

Turkey are really unlucky that they are going to play against Portugal in the playoffs. There are around four months to the game. But I can already see which team are winning. It is of course Portugal. Grin

There is a visible strength difference between these teams. Turkey have been nearly recovering with their new coach. But Portugal is a really strong competitor for them. I expect Portugal to eliminate them with the help of Ronaldo.

It will be interesting to see what happens, however Portugal is going to have a slight advantage as if both Italy and Portugal win their semifinals, the final of path C will be played at Portugal.

And there is little doubt the Portugal fans will do everything in their power to support their team and be as influential as possible to try to affect the performance of the Italian team, obviously the influence fans have over the game is small, but with a world cup ticket on the line any single advantage counts no matter how small it could be.

With this advantage Portugal has better chance as fans influence always have some good impact in soccer games but right now Italian new-look side with some good number of quality players also giving very good performance just because of some injuries they have lately few problems, but now they have some good time with this they can prepare in good way and as we all know Portugal team is mostly around CR7 which is issue for them, they also have some good players but still not good and compatible like Italy.

Ground and fans advantage is surely going with them but with some good experience and having European Championship under their belt Italy is a good side which deserve to be in this world cup. But prediction is not easy with many European teams having good experience and system for doing better performance, so we have to watch for this final game.

For the next world cup in Qatar I see Germany and Netherlands as the strongest nations so far. They have been solid and implacable against their adversaries, despite very few mistakes. Furthermore, these are two teams which play really perfectly in group. That is their main advantage in my opinion, which completely puts them in a superior position when compared to south american national teams, for an example, which totally rely in few key players to develop or conclude their strategies. European national teams like the two titans I mentioned are more versatile, so they can adapt themselves better to any game conditions.

Although both Germany and Netherlands got eliminated in the competition, they played some really good football - Germany especially. I have huge expectations for them and other teams I'm looking out for are:

- France
- Belgium
- and maybe England.

And then, there's Spain too.

Yes, I also think that Italy is going to be in the top spot because they have played well and deserve to be in the world cup. And I think I will keep Portugal on the second spot because Portugal is honestly my favorite team among the others to qualify for the world cup.. and I would also really like to see Ronaldo in the world cup.

I think both teams have equal chances of qualifying and to be honest, I want Portugal to qualify a lot more than Italy because I'm big fan of Ronaldo and as like you I really want to see Ronaldo playing in the world cup. Maybe just for the sake of football fans but it is what it is, Portugal has to qualify. This is the potentially last World cup for Cristiano Ronaldo.

I prefer to see the teams that will be able to qualify, challenging the others for the World Cup.. So far, Portugal isn't that team while Italy deserves to be there. Portugal power is concentrated in few players, mainly CR7 while Italy has many stars, unluckily many were injured but it has a huge firepower that will allow it to play finals in Qatar. Honestly seeing Italy out of the tournament will be very sad.
