The United States has a 62.5% chance of meeting a European team in the first round of the Qatar 2022 World Cup, a fairly high probability in a fortuitous game such as a draw.
The remaining 25% corresponds to the probability that the opponents will be South American: Argentina and Brazil. It only has a 12.5% probability of facing Qatar.
Let's review in this odds report, the chances that the United States has against each of the seeded teams in the World Cup draw.
If the opponent were Qatar, the Americans would have great odds to be victorious. They have to bet on a high-scoring, open game to beat the event hosts in this potential World Cup opener should the U.S. make the group.
Belgium and its offensive power represent a problem for the United States, having very low odds to beat the United States.
A good strategy would be to focus on a 0 or 1 goal draw.
The green and the yellow team would be too much for the United States. It has no chance of being able to win this match. It is another match where you have to bet on a draw.
France is another almost impossible opponent for the United States. It has very low odds to win against the Europeans.
The Albiceleste team has everything to be the winner and defeat the United States in a possible crossover in the group stage. The Americans' chances are focused on trying to get a draw.
The U.S. has very little chance with England in getting a win. If there is a hope of getting a 0-0 draw.
Spain is a superior country in soccer terms. History demands so with the US odds being reduced to a hopeful draw.
Although Cristiano Ronaldo would pose a threat to the United States, Portugal is the weakest European according to the statistics with the Americans have a chance to get their first win with an odds of 23.87%.
The best scenario for the United States: face Qatar or Portugal.
The worst scenario for the U.S.: is facing Argentina, Brazil, Belgium, Spain, England, and France.
