You have probably done it for fun.

This year, it’s the 2022 World Cup. Here is the excel file for the 2022 Qatar World Cup played from the 20th of November to the 18th of December 2022.

- All cells must be filled in and sent to the person in charge of the general ranking (participants can have several sheets, it depends on your general rules)

Betting with friends during the 2022 world cup: the group phase will make the difference
When friendly betting, it becomes even more important to know how to anticipate.
Indeed, it is necessary to find the favourites of the groups first before finding the correct results of the knockout phase.
We have all experienced it once, making the wrong predictions in the group phase alters the results of the knockout phase, which starts in the round of 16. As a result, not many points are scored by the participants.
It is essential to collect the points generated by the correct predictions of the teams that come out of the groups.
