Head Coach Tite has an embarrassment of riches with his Roster heading into the 2022 FIFA World Cup. No nation really lives, dies, and breathes in the beautiful game of Soccer like Brazil does. The depth is incredible and finding a Starting XI is fun.

A Seleção start with GK Alisson (Liverpool) and they have many great defenders to work with including captain Thiago Silva, Danilo (Juventus), Dani Alves (UNAM), Alex Sandro (Juventus), Marquinhos (PSG), and Éder Militão (Real Madrid) and others.

In the Midfield there is a real EPL flavor as Brazil has Manchester United’s Casemiro and Fred, West Ham United’s Lucas Paquetá, Liverpool’s Fabinho and Newcastle United’s Bruno Guimarães. There is good reason this team is ranked #1 by FIFA. The players.

Neymar and Brazil have gone an unbeaten 7-1-0 (W-D-L) this year in international play, with the Little Canaries only drawing with Ecuador (1-1) on January 27. They then reeled off 7 straight wins and outscored opponents, 26-2. But the opposition was weak.

Fifa Brazil

Brazil will open up 2022 FIFA World Cup play against Serbia on Thursday, November 24 at Lusail Iconic Stadium (Grass) in Lusail in Match 16 (22:00). Oddsmakers have favorites Brazil at -230, Serbia priced at +675 with a Draw currently lined at +380 (Total 2½, 3).

When they met in Russia in the 2018 World Cup in the Group Stage four years ago in Group E, Brazil rolled to a 2-0 victory over Serbia with Paulinho scoring in the 1st Half and Thiago Silva in the 2nd to help Brazil win the group and advance to the Knockout Stage.

Gabriel Jesus (Arsenal), Richarlison (Tottenham Hotspur), Raphinha (Barcelona) and A Seleção face Switzerland in Match 31 on Tuesday, November 28 at Stadium 974 in Doha. When these two met in the 2018 World Cup in the Group Stage, it ended in a 1-1 Draw.

Brazil’s last game in Group G will be against Cameroon at Lusail Iconic Stadium (Grass) in Lusail. The two sides have played 6 times—twice in the FIFA World Cup—with Brazil rolling to 3-0 (1994) and 4-1 (2014) victories in Group Stage play.

Take Brazil and the Over in the last match (#48) of the Group Stage on December 2.

Xherdan Shaqiri (Chicago Fire) and Switzerland always seem to surprise in international tournaments. Head Coach Murat Yakin has a very dynamic and deep 26-man Roster heading into Qatar for this upcoming 2022 FIFA World Cup.

GK Yann Sommer (Borussia Mönchengladbach, 33 Caps) will likely be A-Team’s main keeper with Manuel Akanji (Manchester City), Captain Granit Xhaka (Arsenal), Haris Seferovic (Nottingham Forest), and Breel Embolo (AS Monaco) all also on the Nati.

This calendar year in international play, Switzerland has actually been below average with the Rossocrociati (Red Crosses) 3-4-1 (W-D-L) heading into the World Cup with setbacks to UEFA powers England, Portugal, and Spain, and also the Czech Republic.

But Switzerland have won three in a row, avenging Losses to all three of those teams—Portugal (1-0), Spain (2-1) and the Czech Republic (2-1) all in 2022-23 Nations League play.

Fifa Switzerland

Group G play for Switzerland begins with Match 13 against Cameroon at Al Janoub Stadium (Grass) in Al Wakrah on Friday, November 24 in the first meeting ever between the two countries.

Online oddsmakers have Switzerland as -143 favorites over Cameroon (+490) in the 3-way market at BetOnline with a Draw lined at +260. The Total (Over/Under) is an oh-so-low 2o -125. Expect the Nati to find a way to get a narrow 1-goal victory here.

Switzerland’s next two games will determine if they stay or go. Group and tournament favorites Brazil are the opponents in Match 31 in Stadium 974 in Doha on November 28 and remember that these two tied 1-1 at the 2016 FIFA World Cup in Russia.

The Swiss will be live dogs and can win that game. El Natis last group game is vs. Serbia, and conventional wisdom dictates that game is the one that determines if Switzerland or Serbia advance on to the Round of 16 and maybe who ends up winning this Group G.

  • Confederation: UEFA
  • Pot: 3
  • Method of Qualification: UEFA Group A winners
  • World Cup Appearances: 13
  • Last Appearance: 2018

Serbia is always underrated, and like fellow teams Croatia, Denmark, Poland, Switzerland, and Uruguay, a nation no one wants to play at any point of any tournament.

Serbia’s Head Coach is Dragan Stojković and its Captain is AMF Dušan Tadić (Ajax) and the Roster includes Aleksandar Mitrović (Fulham), Filip Kostić (Juventus), and Luka Jović (Fiorentina), and Nemanja Gudelj (Sevilla).

Fifa Serbia

In 2022, Serbia has so far gone 4-2-1 (W-D-L) and unbeaten in its last 5 (4-1-0), outscoring opponents 13-4 in the process. The two Losses came to Denmark (0-3) and Norway (0-1).

In their opener, Serbia will play Brazil in Match 16 at Lusail Iconic Stadium (Grass) in Lusail, so this team will be tested right from the gate. Problematic for Serbia is the health of star Mitrović who is now suffering from a foot injury and won’t be playing against Brazil.

Serbia will play Cameroon in Match 29 on Tuesday, November 28 and then Switzerland in Match 47 on Friday, December 2 in two games in which 6 points may very well be needed and where the hobbled Mitrović is expected to be back in the Eagles Starting XI in Qatar.

Cameroon 18/1

  • Confederation: CAF
  • Pot: 4
  • Method of Qualification: CAF Third Round winners
  • World Cup Appearances: 8
  • Last Appearance: 2014
  • Best Performance: Quarterfinals (1934, 1938,1954)
  • FIFA Ranking: #43
  • FIFA Code: CMR
  • Odds to Qualify Round of 16: +375
  • Odds to Win World Cup: 300/1

AFC team Cameroon has a tortuous group route, with Switzerland, Serbia, and Brazil back-to-back-to-back in what looks like an 0-3-0 nightmare with maybe 2 goals scored in the three Group G games in this much-anticipated 2022 FIFA World Cup from Qatar.

Cameroon isn’t a pushover by any means and Les Lions Indomptable (The Indomitable Lions) have been in the world Cup eight times already. They’ve made it to the Quarterfinals three times. But no CAF team has ever won the World Cup and we can’t expect it in 2022.

The Head Coach is Rigobert Song and the Captain is Vincent Aboubakar Al-Nassr, 33 goals) and the club has scorers like Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting (Bayern Munich, 18 goals), Karl Toko Ekambi (Lyon, 12 goals), and Christian Bassogog (Shanghai Shenhua, 7 goals).

Fifa Cameroon

GK André Onana (Inter) and the Indomitable Lions have gone 6-3-3 in this calendar year, losing to Algeria, Uzbekistan, and South Korea. The wins came against weaker opponents, so fading Cameroon in all three of its World Cup Group G games is the betting advice.

This team has just 1 Win and 2 Goals in its last 3 games, so expecting them to suddenly wake up against Switzerland when they couldn’t even score against South Korea or Uzbekistan seems like a stretch. Cameroon might not score a goal in Qatar.

World Cup Group G Predictions

In 2022 FIFA World Cup Group G, it seems like it’s simply a matter of two teams—Switzerland and Serbia—playing for just one spot with Brazil’s advancement assumed and Cameroon’s elimination also a foregone conclusion.

These two UEFA teams are fairly even, but the injury to Mitrović tips the scales in Switzerland’s way, so expect them to advance on with either a 1-1-1 (4 points), 2-0-1 (6 points), 2-1-0 (7 points) mark after Group stage with Goal Differential maybe mattering.

A Seleção will want to send Thiago Silva out in style, and with Neymar, Viní, Gabriel Jesus, and Richarlison, have more than enough firepower and should be able to create 2 goals a game, no matter who the opponent up until the Quarterfinals, should Brazil thrive.

The European teams have proven to be stronger in recent FIFA World Cups, but both Argentina and Brazil will head into the tournament looking the best they have looked in years.

They will also have high hopes and may be on a collision course to face each other in the 2022 FIFA World Cup Final on December 18 in Doha.

2022 FIFA World Cup Group G Predictions Winner:
Brazil
