Mexico Predictions, Odds, and Betting Preview for the 2022 FIFA World Cup Qatar
Mexico is in Group C along with Argentina, Poland and Saudi Arabia. It qualified for the World Cup as 2nd in the overall standings of CONCACAF qualifiers, and is ranked 13th in the FIFA Ranking. These are the predictions, odds and preview for Mexico in the FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022.
Odds to win the group (+450)
It is difficult for Mexico to achieve better results than Argentina, who is the overwhelming favorite to win the first place in Group C. They have to start against Poland, a disciplined and orderly opponent. It will be an undoubtedly tough start for Gerardo Martino’s team. It is precisely between these two teams that there is speculation that the second place will be disputed.
Odds to qualify for the round of 16 (-120)
The Aztecs have chances to qualify for the next round of the World Cup, something they have achieved in the last few editions. The start is not easy and Argentina will follow, to complete the group schedule against Saudi Arabia. Will Mexico arrive at the third game already qualified, or will they have to pay attention to what happens in the other game?
Odds to qualify for quarterfinals (+400)
And so we come across with the great obstacle that all Mexican teams have not been able to remove since the 1986 World Cup in Mexico: reaching the fifth game. Although they have a wealth of World Cup experience, they have since failed to advance beyond the Round of 16.
To do so, they will have to beat the top team in Group D, made up of France, Australia, Denmark and Tunisia. Logic dictates that, if Mexico qualifies, the rival would be France. Can Mexico overcome the team of Kylian Mbappé and Karim Benzema?
Odds to qualify for the semifinal (+1400)
Following the line of qualifying as 2nd in Group C, and after eliminating the 1st of Group D in the round of 16, they will have to play in the quarterfinals against the 1st of Group B or the 2nd of Group A.
It should be noted that Mexico has never reached the semifinals of a World Cup.
Odds to qualify for the final (+5000)
Unlikely, but soccer is full of surprises. Remember that the World Cup is a short competition, and how the players wake up on the day of the match is very important.
Odds to win the Qatar World Cup 2022 (+13000)
If it is unlikely that they will reach the final, what can we say about Mexico, world champion… The odds offered by DraftKings speak for themselves…
JefeBet Prediction
Mexico arrives at the World Cup without a good performance in international friendlies, having lost to Paraguay and Colombia and with a victory against Peru by the minimum score. And none of those opponents will play in the World Cup.
They have interesting players who play in important leagues, such as Andrés Guardado (Betis), Hirving Lozano (Napoli), Jorge Sánchez (Ajax), Raúl Jiménez (Wolverhampton) and Diego Lainez (Sporting Braga), but they will miss Jesús Tecatito Corona, from Sevilla, who will miss the World Cup due to an injury.
Taking all this into account, JefeBet believes that Mexico will not qualify for the next round.
Prediction: Mexico will be eliminated in the group stage
