With the 2022 FIFA World Cup nearly upon us, plenty of people are wondering what will go Stephon Tuitt Jersey down in Qatar over the next month.Here at The Sporting News have attempted to answer some of the most pre sing questions, with our football experts giving their predictions for the latest FIFA tournament.Our truly global team works in a variety of regions, including the USA, UK, Australia, Spain and Japan.From winners and flops, to goalscorers and stars, we've come together to offer some World Cup insights. Some may come as a surprise.MORE: | Simon Borg - ArgentinaMe si winning the big one in his last World Cup is a great story, but Argentina is actually a great team and with a supporting cast finally worthy of their superstar captain. They'll enter the World Cup unbeaten in 35 and it's no coincidence. They have a deep squad with difference makers who play with swagger and unity for one common goal: Win one for Me si. It only helps they have a favourable road to the final.Juan Estvez - BrazilAfter mostly under-performing in recent editions of the World Cup, I think Tite's team is ready to win their sixth trophy in Qatar. Not only do they have elite attackers as usual, but also some of the world's best defenders and defensive midfielders.Mike DeCourcy - BrazilIt makes me exceedingly nervous to invest in a team featuring Neymar. In 2014, his Brazil was destroyed 7-1 at home in the World Cup semifinals. In 2018, his Brazil was eliminated in the quarterfinals and had to rally to lose, 2-1. Make no mistake, for all the incredible attacking talent, the team still flows through him. But theres so much talent. The names on the defence arent nece sarily inspiring but, damn, they only allowed five goals in 17 CONMEBOL World Cup qualifying games. It has been 20 years since we had Brazil as a champion. This is Neymars chance to place himself in his countrys World Cup history with Ronaldo, Romario and Pele. What an opportunity.Mauricio Codocea - ArgentinaAlthough the team has not competed regularly against the top tier European candidates, the Finali sima vs. Italy showed the players (and the staff) are prepared. Like never before, there's a team ready to support Me si and not depend completely on him. And then there's him, the greatest player in the world along with a group maybe hungrier than all the other 31 squads.Nobuto Tanji - SerbiaThey have world-cla s talent like Dusan Vlahovic and Sergej Milinkovic-Savic. And Sergejs brother, Vanja, has made several outstanding saves for Torino this season. In Serbia's most recent match against Norway, they kept a clean sheet against Erling Eric Ebron Jersey Haaland. I believe they are very strong team when everything comes together.Pete Marshall -ArgentinaWith Lionel Me si having already decided this is to be his last World Cup, the stage is set for the most fitting of swan songs. La Albiceleste are on a mammoth unbeaten run, which could see them break Italys world record 37 games in a row in Qatar. The stars are aligned for the GOAT to go out on top with the biggest trophy of them all.Kyle Bonn - BrazilI know picking the favourite is boring, but this team is head and shoulders above the rest. The deepest and most talented team in the world is also quite healthy, which at this point is just unfair. Every other team in the field has weakne ses, but this team has none. You could make Mitchell Trubisky Jersey a Best XI of players who dont make the Brazil squad and it would still do well in this tournament.SimonJuanMikeMauricioNobutoPeteKylePredictionArgentinaBrazilBrazilArgentinaSerbiaArgentinaBrazil (C)Getty Images Simon Borg - SenegalThere's no question that Sadio Mane Co. can get out of Group A and then can give anyone a hard time in the knockouts. They're defensively sound as they showed during qualifyingand AFCON, and in Mane they have a player who can decide a match.Juan Estvez - NetherlandsThey're flying a little bit under the radar this time, but they have as much offensive prowe s as any team on the tournament. They might lack a superstar forward (Memphis Depay is the closest to that) to win it all, but under Louis van Gaal they have proved to be able to compete face to face (and in many cases, beat) the best teams in the world for the last couple of years.Mike DeCourcy - JapanMany USMNT fans were scandalised by the 2-0 pasting their squad took in a September pre-World Cup friendly, in part because Japan lacked the history to suggest they could be this good. Japan has not gotten past the round of 16 in any previous World Cup. And they only finished second in their World Cup qualifying group, behind Saudi Arabia. How good can they be, really? Just watch. I see Japan squeezing through a difficult field into the knockout rounds, and then Franco Harris Jersey po sibly pulling off a round of 16 upset.Mauricio Codocea - USAAfter failing to qualify for the 2018 tournament, the USMNT arrives at a peak in form; maybe not right now but considering the last couple of years. The draw was somehow benevolent and there is a real chance for them to reach the round of 16.Nobuto Tanji - SerbiaIf Serbia do manage to win the World Cup it would be one of the biggest surprises in tournament history. They are flying under the radar but have the quality to cause a number of upsets.Pete Marshall - USAThere seems to be mixed opinion among USMNT fans as to how much promise this World Cup holds, but I am firmly in the camp that this as the dawn of a new adventure. Few squads have as much up-and-coming potential, and this feels like it could be a breakthrough tournament for the likes of Aaronson, McKennie, Dest and Reyna. I think the US will go deep into the knockouts.Kyle Bonn - CanadaWhile all the attention from North America will be on how the U.S. and Mexico do, the Canadians will have the best tournament. Theyve been handed a very difficult group, but that wont deter John Herdman and his squad. The Canada head man is destined for a Premier League job, but not before guiding Canada to a few upset results. Herdman is a master man manager, talking recently about how hewantshis team to play with fear, admitting to the larger than life feel of the event. Hewill have his players ready.SimonJuanMikeMauricioNobutoPeteKylePredictionSenegalNetherlandsJapanUSASerbiaUSACanada Getty Images Simon Borg - MexicoIt's hard to see them getting healthy and finding their groove in time to do damage in a group including Poland, Argentina, and a dangerous Saudi Arabia side. El Tri's scoring woes don't have an obvious solution. The knockouts were a given Pittsburgh Steelers Hats for decades, but not this time.Juan Estvez - FranceEverybody is expecting them to at least get to the semifinals, with Kylian Mbapp and Karim Benzema as an absolutely devastating duo, but I have a bad feeling about them. Losing N'Golo Kant will be a huge blow, even with Aurlien Tchouamni ready to take his place.Mike DeCourcy - FranceNo team that won the previous tournament has emer
