Serbia is my favorite here.

Cameroon made a good game in the first round against Switzerland, but weren’t able to achieve a positive result, being defeated 1:0.

The Indomitable Lions see themselves as one of the stronger footballing nations in Africa and were not satisfied with their semi-final exit at this year’s African Cup of Nations, which was on home soil.

A change of manager followed with Rigobert Song replacing Antonio Conceicao, but there remains a lack of quality and balance in their squad. Their strength is in the attacking third, with captain Aboubakar. A lack of quality in midfield is Cameroon’s issue. They often looked short of ideas at the Africa Cup of Nations and appear reliant on Napoli star Andre-Frank Zambo Anguissa. Ajax goalkeeper Andre Onana is an asset but could be exposed due to a lack of quality defenders.

Majority of their players are from fewer European leagues and are lacking creativity in the midfield as said, which is a huge problem against European sides like Serbia.

Serbia suffered an expected defeat in the opening game against Brazil. But I still see them as one of the candidates to qualify here, because they have quality and a great squad.

They qualified impressively by finishing three points ahead of Portugal, who they came from behind to defeat 2-1 on the final matchday in Lisbon. Serbia’s centre-forward options include Juventus striker Dusan Vlahovic, who has bagged 45 goals across the last two Serie A campaigns, and Fiorentina target man Luka Jovic, who sealed a summer transfer to Fiorentina after failing to nail down a regular starting berth at Real Madrid.

While Serbia’s impressive array of forwards catch the eye, there is plenty of quality in other areas of the squad.

Options in defence include left-back Mihailo Ristic, who caught the eye enough to earn a summer move from Montpellier to Benfica, and versatile defender Nikola Milenkovic, who is a regular for Fiorentina. Filip Kostic – one of the outstanding talents behind Eintracht Frankfurt’s 2021-22 Europa League success and a summer signing for Juventus – is effective as a left wing-back or as a left winger, and veteran Ajax attacking midfielder Dusan Tadic remains hugely influential. Tadic turns 34 during the World Cup but he topped the Eredivisie assists chart with 19 last season and may still have time to leave a major mark on the international stage.

Serbia have the potential to reach the quarter-finals, but first they need to qualify in this tough group where the victory against Cameroon is mandatory and the fight in the third game against Switzerland for the 2nd position. They have several strengths such as Aleksandar Mitrovic, who is set to partner Dusan Vlahovic in a potent forward line; Dusan Tadic who has an eye for a killer pass and the energetic Filip Kostic offers quality out wide.

Serbia has much more quality in their squad and I see them as strong favorites to win here. I have big hopes for them in this tournament and a draw/defeat against Cameroon would be a big disgrace for them because will lose almost all chances to qualify.

塞尔维亚是我最喜欢的地方。

喀麦隆在第一轮对阵瑞士的比赛中表现不错，但未能取得积极的成绩，最终以1:0的比分被击败。

不屈不挠的雄狮视自己为非洲足球强国之一，对于今年在本土举行的非洲国家杯半决赛出局并不满意。

主教练换了，里戈博特·宋取代了安东尼奥·孔西卡曹，但是球队仍然缺乏质量和平衡性。他们的实力在进攻第三，队长阿布巴卡尔。中场缺乏质量是喀麦隆的问题。在非洲国家杯上，他们经常缺乏创意，似乎依赖那不勒斯球星安圭萨。阿贾克斯门将奥纳纳是一笔财富，但由于缺乏高质量的后卫，他可能会被暴露出来。

他们的大部分球员来自较少的欧洲联赛，中场缺乏创造力，这在对阵塞尔维亚这样的欧洲球队时是一个巨大的问题。

塞尔维亚在首场对阵巴西的比赛中遭遇了意料之中的失败。但我仍然认为他们是晋级的候选者之一，因为他们的实力和阵容都很棒。

他们以领先葡萄牙队3分的成绩出线，令人印象深刻。在里斯本的最后一个比赛日，他们以2-1的比分落后葡萄牙队。塞尔维亚中锋的选择包括尤文图斯前锋杜桑·弗拉霍维奇，他在最近两届意甲联赛中打进了45球，还有佛罗伦萨的目标人物卢卡·约维奇，他在皇马未能获得主力位置后，今夏转会佛罗伦萨。

虽然塞尔维亚令人印象深刻的前锋阵容吸引了眼球，但球队的其他领域也有很多高质量的球员。

后防线的选择包括左后卫米哈伊洛·里斯蒂奇，他吸引了足够的眼球，在夏天从蒙彼利埃转会到本菲卡，以及全能后卫尼古拉·米伦科维奇，他是佛罗伦萨的固定球员。菲利普-科斯蒂奇是法兰克福队在2021-22赛季欧联杯取得成功的杰出天才之一，他在夏天被尤文图斯签下。科斯蒂奇作为左边后卫或左边锋都很有效力，而阿贾克斯的老将攻击型中场杜山-塔迪奇仍然有着巨大的影响力。塔迪奇在世界杯期间将年满34岁，但他上赛季以19次助攻荣登埃尔德维西队助攻榜榜首，他可能还有时间在国际舞台上留下重要的印记。

塞尔维亚有潜力进入1 / 4决赛，但首先他们需要从这个艰难的小组中出线，小组赛必须战胜喀麦隆，第三场还要与瑞士争夺第二名的位置。他们有几个优势，比如亚历山大·米特罗维奇，他将与杜桑·弗拉霍维奇搭档，形成强有力的锋线;杜桑·塔迪奇有致命传球的眼光，而精力充沛的菲利普·科斯蒂克在边路提供高质量的传球。

塞尔维亚的阵容更有实力，我认为他们是夺冠的大热门。我对他们在本届比赛中的表现寄予厚望，对阵喀麦隆的平局或失利对他们来说将是一大耻辱，因为他们将失去几乎所有出线的机会。
