Most of the participants in the World Cup in Qatar are even happy to participate in the final tournament, while the pentacampions have been without victories for 20 years. Before the start of the tournament in Qatar, the Brazilian national team took first place in the FIFA rankings. The team also tops the list of contenders for the title among bookmakers. This is to be expected. The Yellow-Greens have an abundance of star players who can outshine any team. At the same time, off-field troubles in Qatar threaten to derail the celebration of football. According to Tite, he and his squad will aim to extend their unbeaten streak of 15 group stage matches, where they have 12 victories and three draws. In addition, the mentor of the “chosen ones” will be the first to lead Brazil in the World Cup twice in a row since Tele Santana in 1982 and 1986. In September, the “five-fold” beat Ghana (3:0) and Tunisia (5:1) in turn. Marquinhos and Antony, who has a muscle injury, will not be able to play today.
Serbia starts at the World Cup with the hope of raising its rating. The national team is currently in 25th position. In addition, the “eagles” have the opportunity to prove their viability and the non-randomness of success in the qualifying campaign, where the team remained invincible. For eight fights the nominal guests won six times and twice broke up with opponents from around the world. However, the Serbs had an equally impressive result in qualifying for the 2018 World Cup, but the team flew out already at the group stage. At the same time, ironically, they performed in the same quartet with Brazil. In this tournament, Dragan Stojkovic is counting on the attacking potential of his team, from which he expects progress at this particular stage. What’s more, it’s the powerful offensive line that can be called for, as Serbia have conceded in each of their eight qualifiers and boast just two clean sheets in their last three World Cup games. In the last test match against Bahrain, the Eagles also conceded, while five goals scored pleased with success in this duel with a score of 5:1. Lukic and Mitrovic, who has an ankle injury, will not be able to play today. More 888 soccer prediction can be obtained from the link provided.
