Now Qatar is going to be first Muslim country who is going to host his mega event and surely this is going to be game changer for this region which is having some terrible issues and conflicts for decades with this all I am still feeling Qatar is not having any good chance for qualifying into next round because their group is tough, and they are currently the most weak side in this event.

Qatar is in Group A. And here their opponents are Ecuador, Netherlands and Senegal. Teams are considered strong but their performances are not consistent. If Qatar can perform a bit better, they have a chance to win both matches. And I think they will be able to draw in that match if they play defensively. Moreover, as the home team, they will get some extra advantage.

In this group, the Netherlands is the clear favorite, but Senegal, the finalist of the African Championship, will also be a very difficult opponent and they are probably the main candidates for second place and passing the group.
Ecuador is probably the weakest South American team that qualified for this world championship, and Qatar almost certainly would not have participated in this world championship if they were not the hosts.
I think there is little chance for Qatar to pass the group because they will have to beat one of the group's favorites, the Netherlands or Senegal.
Of course, surprises are always possible, and Qatar can certainly count on mild support from FIFA and football referees.

you are right. If Qatar had not been the host country, it would have been almost impossible for Qatar to qualify for the next round from this group. But they will play at home. At the same time, as host countries, they may be able to exert some influence over FIFA and the referees. And so it is not impossible for them to qualify for the next round. Also, the Qatari team is not too weak. They can play well.

It is a pity that a country like Venezuela, which has never been to a World Cup, is not the host for a World Cup either, in this case Qatar is very lucky, but above all it is a country with a lot of money and I think this is one of the things for which it will attract many people in the world, particularly I would like one day to go to know this country, when the draw was made they showed a great show, and I think that due to the environment or something similar we will not have a problem, I hope that QATAR manages to pass at least to the second round, to the round of 16 is something respectable for a team, and I hope that for the next World Cup they will be able to go too.

I saw in the news that Qatar prepared a 220 billion dollar fund for the 2022 world cup which is more money than any host country has ever spent. Qatar is a rich country and has done all the necessary steps to attract visitors. Qatar spent a lot of money to host the World Cup. Now it will be a shame if their country doesn't make it to the next round. I would expect Qatar to at least qualify for the second round,
