OLYMPIC FOOTBALL 2024 GROUP B PREDICTION

Argentina may have flattered to deceive at the delayed Tokyo 2020 Olympics, but they will be the overwhelming favourites to finish top of Group A at this summer's tournament and should have few problems securing safe passage through to the knockout rounds.

Morocco possess enough talent from across Europe to push Argentina for top spot, but they will likely battle with tournament debutants Ukraine for the second qualification spot.

There is little to separate both Morocco and Ukraine, but we feel that the former may just pip the latter to second place, while Iraq, arguably the weakest team in the group, may have to settle for fourth place.
