If you only look at recent history, then you are right, but if we look at the entire history of world championships, then we already had examples of Brazil and Italy being world champions twice in a row.
And as far as recent history is concerned, in the period 1994-2002, Brazil played three times in a row in the final of the world championship and was twice the world champion.
I personally think that France, along with Brazil, has the best team at the world championship in Qatar and I see France as the main favorite for the world championship title.
Of course, surprises are always possible
Even if we go with database and analysis then surely we can do better instead of having all things through current and previous forms because it's never been easy for any team to stay on same level for long time as this is part of the routine cycle ups and downs are also part of the life here with most chances Brazil is going to be one of the best team but for their opponent we have few teams which are giving their best and can take pole position.And as far as recent history is concerned, in the period 1994-2002, Brazil played three times in a row in the final of the world championship and was twice the world champion.

France is surely with the strength of squad currently one of the best in Europe and can go through into last four but few things which are creating mess up for me is their inner problems can do something worst for them in this event, and we can go for the final which could be between Argentina vs Brazil which is also option right now.
