Basically just by looking at the groups you can easier point out the favorite without much thought. Group A has Netherland and Senegal as favorites while Group B has England. The others I'm not familiar with their record so I can't decide. It still surprises me that England hasn't won anything in the era with all the talents they have. Group C has Argentina and Mexico as favorites for me.

Group D has France and Denmark as my pick while group E has almighty Spain and Germany. Group F has Belgium and Croatia. Belgium has all it take to win every tournament they participate in but just like england, I don't understand their bad luck. Group G has Brazil and Cameroon (this nation was impressive in the just concluded AFCON). And finally group H has Portugal and Uruguay as favorites in my books.
