Group B.
Today we turn our focus to Group B, one of the more top-heavy groups of the tournament. Euro 2016 champions Portugal represent the seeded team, with 2010 winners Spain joining Morocco and Iran as the others.
From the outside, it would seem as though Spain and Portugal will have an easy route into the knockout stages. However, this is a World Cup. This is football. No team is here undeservedly, and if either Morocco or Iran get a result against one of the big boys, you never know what may happen.
The early meeting between Spain and Portugal represents the most star-studded game of the opening matchday across the tournament. Our editors Lewis Steele and Isaac Johnson take a look at the four teams in Group B and offer their predictions on who may progress to the next round.
