Group B – Pundits

????????

Up next, I take on Group B for Fantasy Football Pundits. Portugal and Spain are set to go head to head in their opening game, followed by Morocco and Iran. Christiano Ronaldo looks set to light up the World Cup and there’s talent galore in the Spain squad. Make sure you join the Pundits mini-league, with a big cash prize pool.

Group C – 247

????????

Fantasy Football 247 provide a community guide for Group C. France’s chances are highly rated in this World Cup, with true strength and depth. An easy opener against Australia should see France off to a strong start. Christian Eriksen will be key to Denmark’s hopes of progression.

In a series of excellent previews, Ryan from Fantasy YIRMA takes on the Group E edition. Brazil are the tournament favourites and there’s no wonder why. Group E is considered a competitive one; with Switzerland, Costa Rica and Serbia all fancying their chances of progressing.

Group G – 90MAAT

?????????????

The team at 90MAAT have also produced a team by team guide. Their preview articles for Group G make interesting reading. We will be rooting for England, who have Belgium to contend with in their final group game. The Red Devil’s are well fancied, with a host of stars.

Our penultimate team in the penultimate group is Tunisia – up against the odds to qualify from group G. Nabil Maaloul's side will face difficult games against England and Belgiu, but could they progress to the knock-out stages of 2018's World Cup?https://t.co/qFvgw1bzCf

Marcus Christenson, from the Guardian, has a guide to every single player going to the World Cup, that’s all 736 players!
