I don't know the odds but I think they'll do well.

Anyway they are 3 up in 20 minutes in New Zealand.
Predictable that they would qualify.

Underdogs never win the World Cup - they don't even make the final. Save your money.

Germany, Brazil, Spain, Argentina... expect a much better world cup from Argentina this time as its in south america... although i'm backing Brazil to win this one as long as they keep their key players fit.

They're the 4 I'd go for. Brazil and Argentina have home advantage, Spain and Germany have squad depth

IF I were to back an underdog, it would be Belgium. Incredibly strong squad they have, absolutely walked their group and they play great football.

I can genuinely see them making the final.

Well they bloody should be, they're quality and the bookies aren't stupid.

But they're traditionally underdogs - they didn't even qualify for the previous two World Cups.

Agree... Belgium have a genuine chance imho.

About time Holland won it too, although far from "underdogs" granted.

How can a country as small as Belgium produce as many good players as they have with a population of around 10 million? We have five times that ffs.

Mexico have been utter gash for most of the qualifying campaign.

They finished behind USA, Costa Rica (who are absolute TURD) and Honduras. They almost lost out to Panama for the play off place until Panama suffered a late meltdown against USA to win 2-1.

There is absolutely no chance they can win the World Cup.
