World Cup 2018: Predicting how far each of the 32 teams will go 

Group G

Russia may be the last chance for Belgium's 'golden generation'

Belgium - Quarter Finals

Belgium's 'golden generation' have never been able to manage to live up to their expectations, largely in part due to poor management decisions.

This tournament they will be led by former Everton and Wigan manager, Roberto Martinez, in what many pundits are sighting as their last chance at glory.

Belgium would have to overcome several major obstacles if they were to get to the final in Russia, and their biggest challenge will be a potential showdown with Brazil or Germany in the quarterfinals.

While Belgium has an undeniably talented squad, one of the best in the tournament probably, it seems unlikely that they will be able to overcome one of the tournament's favourites in the quarterfinals.

Panama - Group Stage

Qualification is a dream come true for Panama

Panama's quest for a spot in Russia was one of the best stories of the qualifiers. Having failed to qualify for Brazil last time out, they left it late this time around, securing a 1-0 win in the 88th minute against Costa Rica to send the whole country into wild fits of celebration.

The scorer that day was team captain Roman Torres, and the Seattle Sounders centre-back will no doubt be a big player for the South Americans in Russia.

Given that they are sharing a group with both England and Belgium though, Panama's chances of getting through to the knock-out stages are very slim.

The country has defied the odds at every turn over the last few years, and a victory against Tunisia would be enough to send the country into rapturous celebrations.

Tunisia - Group Stage

Tunisia face a very difficult task in Russia

Like Panama, Tunisia will not be fancying their chances too much in Group G. The African side had an impressive qualification campaign, but the level of competition will be much more difficult in Russia.

The side will be making their fifth World Cup appearance in Russia, but they have never once gotten out of the group stages, registering only one win back in the 1978 World Cup.

They will be hoping to at least double their win count in Russia, and will likely be battling it out for third place with Panama.

England - Quarter Finals

How far can Gareth Southgate's young lions get in Russia?

England have not had the best of times in International tournaments over the last decade or so, with the Three Lions only making the quarterfinals of one tournament since Germany 2006.

Gareth Southgate's young squad should do considerably better than the side that failed to get out of the group stages in Brazil in 2014, though, it seems fairly likely that they may finish runners-up in Group G.

If other groups go as predicted, it wouldn't really make too much difference for England, as they would likely come up against Germany or Brazil in the quarter-finals, two teams that have great records against England in International tournaments.

It would be a major disaster if England failed to get out of the groups once again, and they should be strong enough to get past Colombia or Poland in the round of 16. A victory over Brazil or Germany feels like a leap though, and England will likely be boarding the plane back to Gatwick after the quarter-final stage.
