2022 World Cup Odds: Best Underdog Picks in Every Group

The 2022 World Cup in Qatar will be held in Doha. Here are the teams that have a chance to shock the world and go deep into the knockout stages.

Sadio Mané is out of the World Cup with a leg injury. Ismaila Sarr and Krépin Diatta will be the next-man-up for Senegal. Senegal won the Africa Cup of Nations earlier this year.

The USMNT failed to qualify for the 2018 World Cup. Christian Pulisic will lead a young, talented American squad in Qatar. The US are in Group B with England, Ghana and Nigeria.

Mexico came third in CONCACAF qualifying and scored just 17 goals in 14 games. They have a good goalkeeper in Guillermo Ochoa. Mexico and Poland will probably battle it out to join Argentina as the teams to advance from Group C.

Denmark is the story of the 2020 Euros. Christian Eriksen collapsed with a cardiac arrest on the pitch in game one. Denmark won the tournament after a comeback against England.

This year's Japan team is less talented than in the previous World Cup appearances. The team has to hope to get out of a group that includes Spain, Germany and Costa Rica.

Canada is back in the World Cup after a 36-year drought. Canada finished on top of the CONCACAF standings. They are in Group F with Belgium, Croatia and Morocco.

Switzerland is an experienced team that has a favorable pathway to go deep in the 2022 World Cup. Granit Xhaka is in top form and has the penchant for upping his game when playing for his country.

Uruguay won the first World Cup in 1930 and the second in 1950. They have only made it past the quarters once in the last 50 years. Darwin Nunez has added scoring punch to complement Luis Suarez and Edinson Cavani. Federico Valverde and Rodrigo Bentancur are also important players. Uruguay has a nice blend of star power and experience.
