Who Looks in the Best Form Ahead Qatar 2022 Based on the Qualifiers?

1883

World Cup qualification is all but secured for many of the top nations around the world, as South America sees Brazil and Argentina ease through just as France and England do so from the European scene with plenty of breathing space too.

Nations like Portugal and Italy have had to steer their way through the play-offs instead, and here we look at who looks in the best form ahead of the 2022 World Cup based on the qualifiers.

Brazil

Brazil have looked all but faultless once again in their pursuit of winning the South American qualification division. They are now heading towards beating their record of points set four years ago where they gained 41 from 18 games.

With Qatar 2022 months away, Brazil are unbeaten in their qualification table, have scored 32 times, conceded five, and only need to collect two more points from three more games to match their 2017 qualification record.

Belgium

The Red Devils normally make lightwork of their qualification stage into a major tournament as they broke goalscoring records last time out in the Euro 2020 qualifiers.

Ahead of Qatar 2022, Belgium have not lost a game, drawn only to Wales and the Czech Republic, and scored 25 times across eight games and showed the rest of the world their goalscoring and creative ability through the likes of Kevin De Bruyne remains one of the best.

Denmark

Denmark are a very good footballing nation right now. They stunned everyone by pushing England right to the end in the semi-finals of Euro 2020, and they've since gone from strength to strength.

With 30 goals scored and three conceded, very few can lay a glove on their efforts in Group F, but they did manage to lose their unbeaten and clean sheet run when they beat the Faroe Islands 3-1 before losing to Scotland 2-0. They had previously not conceded a goal in all eight games to that point.

England

The favourites in the eyes of many to win the World Cup, England lost out on gold at Euro 2020 by the simple fact they missed some penalties in the final shootout. They’ve only added to this form though by scoring 30 goals from their seven games after the final, and nobody is scoring goals better than England right now with a record 39 in total across the UEFA qualifications.

Germany

Germany had a torrid time at Euro 2020 as they were knocked out by rivals England at Wembley, but with nine games won and one loss to North Macedonia, the four-time world champions will be in attendance at Qatar 2022 to remind everyone they are Europe's elite name on the world stage.

They've managed to net 36 times and conceded only four goals, meaning only England have a better record inside the UEFA qualifiers than they do.
