A tricky group, you must say for Europe's emerging football powerhouse, Iceland, may turn out to be a great revelation in this mundial...you can well brand as griant killers. Croatia also a high technical side may leave Nigeria as the weakest team in group.
Group A: Russia, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Uruguay
Group B: Portugal, Spain, Morocco, Iran
Group C: France, Australia Peru, Denmark
Group D: Argentina, Iceland, Croatia, Nigeria
Group E: Brazil, Switzerland, Costa Rica, Serbia

What are the real chances of Nigeria qualifying from group D, will remain a debate among football pundits and fans across the world.
