Probably France, Germany or Brazil. Possibly Argentina if they can learn to play together. Belgium have a very strong squad too. The Americans struggled in qualifying and didn't make it.

For the first time in ages they didn't. It's a shame because their league is improving year in year out. But I'm afraid that this prevents young american players from developing because of the amount of foreign players joining the league.

I'd say the favorites are Germany, Brazil, Spain and somewhat France. Argentina has a very impressive attacking lineup. England is one of my personal favorites too, they've had an impressive campaign during the qualifiers.
