Team Canada at the 2022 World Cup: group, opponents and predictions

Group F at the Fifa World Cup is represented by teams from Canada, Belgium, Croatia and Morocco. Canadians are going to the FIFA World Cup in the status of an outsider, they have two winners of the last World Cup in Russia in their group. Canada’s squad looks confident against the backdrop of Mexico, but the lack of experience in major matches and the excitement will definitely affect.

On the world cup prediction for the Canadian team - 4th place without a single victory. Herdman’s team has too little experience, despite a rather interesting line-up.
