Default World Cup 2022 Predictor - Group Stage

I had fun doing the CFL predictor, so I figured I could continue by doing a World Cup version!

[b]Group Stage, Deadline is before the start of the second group games which start on Friday, November 25th - so get your picks in by the end of Thursday this week.

RULES:

For each group, place the 4 teams in order of how they will finish in the group - you get 1 point for each team that ends up in the exact position that you picked in the group.

Pick one position per group and call it your guaranteed position!
If you get it right you get 2 bonus points (3 total for that position)
If you get it wrong you get -1 points for the position.
Put an * besides your Guaranteed Matchup.

As a bonus pick for the group stage, pick the player in the group with the most goals scored through the group stage, - out of the 4 teams in that group. This will score 3 points for a correct answer.

For the playoffs, we will be picking games winners, with the scores escalating for each deeper round. There will also be some bonus points for picking other correct things, such as who scores the most goals in each round.

Good Luck all, and have fun!

Example of how to pick each group:

Group A:

Qatar 4*
Ecuador 2
Netherlands 1
Senegal 3
Top Scorer: Valencia


This scores 1 point each for Netherlands to win the group, Ecuador to finish second in the group, or Senegal to finish 3rd in the group.

It scores 3 points (due to the star) for Qatar to finish 4th in the group, and -1 point if they finish anywhere else.

If Valencia scores the most goals out of the group (or is tied for first), you would score 3 points.
