Canada
Group B · CONCACAF · FIFA #30
Canada's 2022 World Cup in Qatar was a group stage exit that disappointed a nation finally believing in its football team, but this squad has genuine quality. Davies is world-class; David is one of Europe's most prolific strikers. A co-host advantage at BC Place Vancouver means substantial home support.

Tactical Analysis
Marsch's energetic 4-3-3 with a high press designed to win the ball back quickly in advanced areas. Davies provides extraordinary width and directness at left-back; David leads the line with lethal finishing in tight spaces.
Betting Angle
Canada at co-host prices may undervalue their actual quality against certain Group B opponents — group stage advancement is a realistic target.
