I hope the countries of Asia and Africa will make a surprise in World Cup 2022.
And there will be a new world champion beyond those who have won the world cup.
Netherlands and Belgium are my best guess

A big LOL to this. Netherlands and Belgium winning the world cup. Grin

Belgium is essentially a one man army, and without Lukaku they don't have any existence on their own. And Netherlands players are more interested in showcasing their karate and kung-fu tactics on opposition players, rather than trying to score goals. This time both of these teams may struggle to get in to the quarter-final stage. Netherlands is placed along with Qatar, Ecuador and Senegal in Group A. I won't be surprised if they finish at the 4th position. And Belgium is placed along with Canada, Morocco and Croatia. They may finish at 2nd or 3rd position.

I don't understand what's funny about it. Belgium and the Netherlands have the best odds in terms of bookmakers if the main group of "traditional" contenders for the title is removed. The Netherlands has 12.9 odds, while Germany has 10.9 odds - not much difference, right?
By the way, the odds for top 1 in their group are 1.41 for the Netherlands and 1.53 for Belgium - they are obvious favorites. You have a very strange analysis, maybe you know something that the bookmakers don't know?

I might agree, if only to get through the group stage, obviously Belgium and the Netherlands will be able to perform perfectly, but we can't predict further when we enter the next round.
although I am very confident with you mate, but other countries' teams are also very ready and able to perform well and are likely to be a stumbling block for the next round.

will there be any surprises? it will always happen but it will probably happen in the first and second round phases after that back to the country team that has always controlled world football, where in their country the match event went well, because this is a contribution they will receive and deserve.
