Brazil, England, Spain: Ranking every side's chances of winning World Cup

The draw for the 2022 World Cup group stages has been made – and now we really can’t wait!

It’s certainly going to be an unusual tournament with it taking place in November and December in Qatar.

But a World Cup is a World Cup and will always be the biggest spectacle in the sport.

While we’re still more than half a year away from the competition, the draw got us all excited.

So much so that we’ve decided to turn to Tiermaker to rank every nation’s chances of winning the whole thing.

As there are still a number of nations to be confirmed, we’ve only included countries that will DEFINITELY be in Qatar.

So, without further ado, here is our ranking from ‘Making up the numbers’ to ‘Eventual winners’. Remember, this is merely our opinion and, if you disagree, feel free to let us know in the Facebook comments section.

Qatar

Iran

Saudi Arabia

Canada

Cameroon

South Korea

Sorry guys, but we think you’re all crashing out at the first possible stage – and probably finishing bottom of the group at that.

Hosts Qatar face Netherlands, Senegal and Ecuador and we simply can’t see how they’ll survive that.

Iran have got England, USA and either Scotland, Wales or Ukraine. While it’s not the toughest group, we don’t think Iran have got the quality to get out of it.

Saudi Arabia have got a hard group that contains Argentina, Mexico and Poland.

It’s great to see Canada in the World Cup but it’s likely they’ll only be playing three matches against Belgium, Morocco and Croatia.

Cameroon may be the strongest side in this tier but to have Brazil, Serbia and Switzerland in their group is a tough task.

Meanwhile, South Korea have got to get past Portugal, Ghana and Uruguay – something we can’t see happening.

Ecuador

USA

Poland

Tunisia

Japan
