Poland, Argentina, Mexico and Saudi Arabia will play in Group C. Who will get the first two places?
The Argentine national team was lucky with the draw. If she does not create problems for herself, she will surely make it to the playoffs, taking first place. In theory, Poland and Mexico can impose a fight, but the final result should still be in favor of Albiceleste. For Lionel Messi, the upcoming World Cup will be the last in his career, so he will be charged at 200%.
But a fierce struggle between Poland and Mexico will unfold for the second line. Saudi Arabia was able to win the third qualifying stage, beating Japan and Australia, but both of these teams are far from the title of "Top", so it can hardly be considered a serious achievement. Reaching the World Cup is already a success for Saudi Arabia, so it will obviously not be able to interfere in the fight for the playoffs.
As for Poland and Mexico, I will give preference to the European team. As part of the group stage of the League of Nations, she failed, winning only two out of six matches, but there were more serious opponents there - the Netherlands and Belgium. Mexico was preparing for the World Cup through friendly games, in which it showed unstable results, alternating wins with losses.
Forecast
Argentina will easily take the first place, and Poland should keep the second, after the failure in the League of Nations, Lewandowski and Zelinski are obliged to join.
