The reigning world champions, Germany, were the Pot 1 to be drawn for Group F. Pot 2 is represented by the strongest CONCACAF team, Mexico, while Pot 3 and 4 resulted in Sweden and South Korea, respectively.

The first round opposes the higher ranked teams in the group, Germany and Mexico. In Gameweek 2, there is a Germany-Sweden. With these tricky games right from the start, you may get upset if you bet on three German players. In a group where balanced games and few goals are expected, it is risky to overload on the German side bet or players of the other teams.

The biggest favourite to take 1st place is, of course, Germany: title holders and current leaders of the FIFA ranking, with more or less struggle they should achieve that goal. Theoretically, Mexico, occupying place #15 in the FIFA ranking, and Sweden, 23rd, are the strongest bets to join the Mannschaft in the knockout rounds. South Korea, despite being only 61st for FIFA, still is a quality side and can certainly upset Sweden early to become the surprise of the group when facing Mexico.
