#1) Brazil
Brazil and Football are inseparable and as soon as anyone takes the name of Football Brazil will probably be the first team that comes to your mind. Brazil is coming into the competition with the intention of avenging its loss in 2014 in its home.
With the likes of Marcelo, Luis, Thiago Silva and Miranda one can't ask for a better defensive line-up coming into the World Cup. The defence is the strongest in the competition and its attack isn't weak either.
With the likes of Coutinho, Gabriel Jesus and Neymar the Brazilian flair of the early 2000s seem to be back and this makes the Brazilian team the strongest going into the tournament. The team doesn't have any apparent weakness as such and this campaign might well be a good one for the Selecao.
