Yes I do have view and I would like you to share your views after reading mine
With home support I think Qatar will be going through to the next round by qualifying as runners-up in their group. There is a strong chance African nations will be successful with Tunisia, Morocco and Cameroon possibly qualifying either as winners or runners-up but Ghana probably be out at the group stage.
For neutrals the competition will always be more interesting if the host nation (especially if they are underdogs) manages to go far in the competition.
This is how I anticipate the group stages ending:
Group Awinner: Netherlands
runners-up: Qatar
Group Bwinner: England
runners-up: Wales
Group Cwinner: Argentina
runners-up: Mexico
Group Dwinner: France
runners-up: Tunisia
Group Ewinner: Germany
runners-up: Japan
Group Fwinner: Belgium
runners-up: Morocco
Group Gwinner: Brazil
runners-up: Cameroon
Group Hwinner: Portugal
runners-up: South Korea
JollyGood I haven't seen your first round predictions yet, or do you not have any?
An interesting prediction.
It seems to me that you have a lot of faith in the strength of African teams. Is it because it is played in very difficult weather conditions that suit African teams more?
Most of the African national teams are unknown to me, so I won't comment on that, but here is my opinion.
I think that in group D, Denmark is definitely a better and more experienced national team than Tunisia and that they have an advantage.
Why do you think that Spain, one of the favorites of the entire world championship, will not even make it to the knockout phase of the competition?
Likewise, why do you think that the world runner-up and current Nations League group winner, Croatia, will not advance to the knockout stage of the competition in Group F?
In Group G, I give Serbia a better chance than Cameroon, and in Group H, Uruguay has a better chance than South Korea.
