In this group Brazil is the team with almost the highest claim to the title this year, and by common sense should finish first.

But the other teams are no slouches either. Serbia and Switzerland were in the same group as Brazil four years ago, and now they're in the same group, so they're actually kind of familiar with each other.

Brazil is the favorite to win this year's championship, led by Neymar, Richarlison in the front line, Vinícius Júnior and Raphinha in the side line, all of them are strong breakthroughs and capable of shooting and passing, and on the bench there are also extremely tricky runners such as Gabriel Jesus, Antony, and Rodrygo, who is capable of inserting the ball and grabbing the point. On the bench are Gabriel Jesus, Antony, and Rodrygo, who is a good tackler, so there are two groups in front of the ball, and they are all superb.
The midfield is made up of Lucas Paquetá, who is very good at delivering crosses to the front, Bruno Guimarães, who has a great defensive coverage at the back, and Casemiro, Fabinho, and Fred, who all play for the giants and are also very good defensive engineers, with Casemiro in the back.

Championship, from being a defensive workhorse to being able to go up and distribute the ball, and now being a very mature back, Fabinho is in
Liverpool (England)
For many years, he was a fairly good stand-up back, often times even able to drop back into the backline to do the defensive work of the center backs, and Fred was in the
Manchester United Football Club
He is a back who can go forward to attack, has good physical ability and a great range of motion, is small and sometimes makes mistakes, but when he is in good shape, he can keep going forward to support the attack.
Brazil's backline consists of Thiago Silva, Marquinhos, and Éder Militão, all three of whom are very good at defending, intercepting, and supporting the front, Marquinhos has even played in the back before, and then there is also the great goalkeeper Alisson, which makes the Brazilian defense quite stable. With Alex Telles and Dani Alves on both sides of the ball, and Juve's two fierce wingbacks Danilo and Alex Sandro, Brazil can be said to have two players in each position for rotation, and can almost make up two top teams, which is definitely the team with the richest human resources in this year's World Cup.
Serbia is coming on strong this year, as they've put out two superb attackers.

Fulham's monster center Aleksandar Mitrovi?, a heavy center at 189 but quick, has great strength and confrontation, a terrifying press in the box, and is very capable of scoring on the power play, and another striker, Dušan Vlahovi? at
Juventus, Italian football team
Effective, at 190 but frighteningly fast, he can also play to the wing for blitzes and has great ball carrying ability, the combination of these two is tall and fast, a pretty standard high impact pairing.
In the midfield, Serbia has Ajax veteran Dušan Tadi? As Serbia's captain, he already has a lot of experience in big games, and in the highly skilled Ajax, he can play in the starting position, and the forward pass delivery is very lethal, Sergej Milinkoviš-Saviš is good at intercepting the ball at the back of the field, and he also has a strong counter-attacking ability, and he is very destructive in passing and shooting from behind. Sergej Milinkovi?-Savi? is good at intercepting the ball at the back, and also has strong counter-attacking ability, and is very destructive in passing and shooting from the back. Nikola Milenkovi? and Strahinja Pavlovi? are over 190 in the center back, which makes the back line quite strong.
