World Cup groups 2022: Updated draw results, teams, pairings, match schedule and fixtures

By | April 1, 2022

The group stage for the 2022 FIFA World Cup will be set after the draw on April 1 in Qatar.

The 32 finalists will know what their pathway is through the group stage. There will be seven months of debate as to who will be able to make it out of the group and who will stumble.

Only the top two teams in each group will advance to the Round of 16 and the potential pairings for the knockout rounds are also known. Plenty will project potential finalists and winners, including the sportsbooks who will be busy after the draw attaching odds to each team’s chances of getting out of the group. 

We will only know the times and stadium for each match after the draw. FIFA wants to take its time to make sure local TV markets are getting the optimal time slots and also that fans can travel to the big matches. Given all the World Cup stadiums are in close proximity, fans will be able to get around to matches pretty easily, including on the same day. FIFA want to make it easy for them to get to in-demand events.

There are three spots still up for grabs to the World Cup with eight teams vying for those coveted places in June. Each team will head into those matches knowing who they’ll meet in the group stage.
