World Cup 2022 Group F fixtures, teams and tournament venues

Belgium, Croatia, Morocco and Canada make up Group F

A lot of expectation will again be on Roberto Martinez and his Belgium side, as their golden generation has perhaps their last shot at glory together at the 2022 World Cup, starting in Group F.

Kevin de Bruyne, Thibaut Courtois and Co qualified with ease thanks to six wins out of eight in their Uefa group, finishing five points clear, unbeaten throughout and conceding only six times. Fellow Europeans Croatia also finished top, albeit by just one point in their case, conceding even fewer but losing once.

From Africa, Morocco earned their place at the finals thanks to a convincing two-legged win over DR Congo, while Canada surprised many by finishing top of the Concacaf qualification group to earn a first World Cup appearance in 36 years.

While any of the other three will feel they might be able to sneak through to the knock-outs if they play to their maximum, most will be expected of Belgium - a nation with the individuals to take them deep into this tournament.

How do the teams shape up?

Belgium certainly come into the tournament in decent form after pushing Netherlands all the way in their Nations League group, but there remain some concerns over whether they have the killer instinct in attack to go all the way. Behind them it looks more open as to who qualifies for the last 16: Croatia will feel best-placed thanks to recent tournament history but Morocco have barely lost a game of note in the last three years and Canada’s upturn in fortunes marks them out as a team to watch capable of setting history in their own record books, even if they don’t reach the knock-outs. The very first round of games could prove pivotal for the winners of Morocco vs Croatia.

Who is going to win the group?

Belgium - 1/2

Croatia - 11/4

Morocco - 15/2

Canada 10/1
