On the podcast today; the second of our World Cup previews. We begin at Group E. A group that features Germany, Ecuador, Ivory Coast and Curaçao. It also features a 40-year-old goalkeeper and a 78-year-old manager. The panel debate whether Germany’s recent poor performances at major tournaments qualifies them as dark horses and what we can expect from debutants Curaçao.
In Group F, are the Netherlands very good actually or will there be a time-honoured implosion? Can Japan maintain their dark horse status without Kaoru Mitoma? Tunisia and Graham Potter’s Sweden also feature.
Group G looks straightforward for Belgium as they take on Egypt, Iran and New Zealand. And then finally to Group D, as Sid Lowe joins to discuss Spain. They line up against Uruguay, Cape Verde and Saudi Arabia. Are Spain the favourites?
