Cool Running Football Tips

In a group consisting of Brazil, Scotland, Haiti, and Morocco, the former World Cup winners should top the group with ease. Morocco appears to be the only one of the teams capable of giving them a game.

The two countries have not met since 2010 when they drew. Since that time, Mexico as a football nation has come on leaps and bounds and is ranked 15, while South Africa is ranked 60. Mexico should start off with a win.

Although they have lost their last two games, South Korea can kick off their World Cup with a draw against a Czech team ranked 14 places lower.

Canada are ranked 30 whilst opponent Bosnia are ranked 65. They have never met in a competitive football match, but being on home soil Canada should hold the edge.

Host USA kick off their World Cup against Paraguay, a team ranked 24 places below them in the FIFA World Rankings. They last met in 2025 when USA won 2-1.

This should be a banker win for Switzerland. Their opponent Qatar have managed only one win in their past eleven games. This could be a big score.

Morocco were surprise semi-finalists in the last World Cup. They are only two places below Brazil in the rankings and beat them 2-1 the last time they met. But this time Brazil should gain revenge.

The match against Haiti may present Scotland with their best chance of a group win. Haiti are ranked 40 places below Scotland, and the countries have never met.
