Group C follows a classic "top seed plus three chasers" structure. Brazil leads the group at 6th in the FIFA rankings, but their form is inconsistent, with only 2 wins, 1 draw, and 2 losses in their last five matches. Morocco, ranked 11th, is in the best form with 4 wins and 1 draw in their last five, making them a serious threat to upset the order.
On paper, Morocco is the team most likely to cause an upset. Scotland is ranked 43rd and has been inconsistent with 2 wins and 3 losses in their last five matches. Haiti, ranked 87th, has a record of 2 wins, 1 draw, and 2 losses in their last five; they are the lowest-ranked team and the most vulnerable link in the group.
Key matches are concentrated in the first two rounds: Brazil vs. Morocco on June 13 will directly test the seeding of the two teams, while Scotland vs. Brazil and Morocco vs. Haiti on June 24 could determine the pace of qualification.
The real intrigue lies in whether Brazil can translate their ranking advantage into stability. If Morocco continues its upward momentum, the battle for second place in this group will be tighter than expected.
