Before the tournament I had Brazil the undisputed favorite. They didn’t play too well in their first game but logically they should start picking up their game specially if Neymar is 100% fit and in form. They may also need to tweak the lineup a bit, i.e Firmino for Jesus, Fred for Paulinho and Douglas Costa for Willian.
I would hate for Brazil to win it though, as I’m an Argentina supporter. Sadly I don’t even think Argentina will make it to the 2nd round. I think they lose against Croatia and they’ll have tremendous pressure to come out with a result against Nigeria while Iceland plays Croatia who will be probably already qualified.
I don’t see Spain or Germany winning for different reasons. France on paper are very strong but they have an immature team and a poor coach. I like Belgium and Croatia as underdogs a lot while Portugal could also sneak in through luck as usual.
