Punters beware
There’s a reason why Brazil – the #1 seed for the FIFA 2022 World Cup – have been standing in the wings for 20 years. The reason is this: seeds are not a predictor of World Cup success. In fact, there is no reliable FIFA World Cup predictor.
And that’s why the World Cup is so emotional and has fans gripped to the edge of their seats. Anything can happen.
For the past month I have been posting on the FIFA World Cup for 2022. This blog brings all those posts together to help you find everything you need to make your own predictions of who will win the FIFA 2022 World Cup.

Preview of the Daily Match Schedule
Daily Match Schedules are Available in a Group Bundle
If you want to get the Daily Schedule for the whole group, then these are available in a bundle of 3. So each bundle is a day of matches for the Groups. Group matches are allocated different days to ensure that each team has a break between games (typically 3 days between games).
How to win: the FIFA World Cup Predictor
As I write this, the headlines are screaming “Dream Over” for Qatar after they lost to Ecuador 3 – NIL in the kick-off and first game of the FIFA 2022 World Cup.
So as of this moment, Ecuador have added 3 points to the table for Group A and Qatar are still on 0.
Remember: there are 729 possible combinations once all 6 games of the Group Stage have been played. And there are still 5 games yet to be played for Group A.
There is no easy way to predict who will win. But Qatar, ranked 50th seed by FIFA and supported by a strong home crowd on home territory, may still find their pathway to victory!
