Former Premier League stars, Gary Neville, Jamie Redknapp and Jamie Carragher, have predicted the country to win this year’s FIFA World Cup in Qatar.
Thirty-two countries will be contesting for the 2022 World Cup trophy in Qatar.
The tournament will commence on Sunday, with hosts Qatar facing Ecuador in a Group A tie at the Al Bayt Stadium in Al Khor.
Providing their predictions, Neville told Sky Sports: “We always feel we’ve got great players in this country, and we do, but when you look at the Brazil squad, you think, “Oh my God – where have they come from?”
“I am quite confident they will win it.”
On his part, Redknapp added, “Neymar is in great form again – I have gone with Brazil as I feel it could be their time again.”
Similarly, Carragher said, “It was either Brazil or Argentina for me. They’re the two favourites, but I’d love to see [Lionel] Messi win the World Cup.”
