On current form? W2 D1 L1
Sure they were not competitive games but you can't bring up Brasil's win over England if you disregard Brasils past 4 games
The African nations have an advantage because they are playing competitive games in the African cup of Nations so as long as Ivory Coast players can stay fit then I give them a good chance of qualifying from that group and I really wouldn't be surprised to see Brasil going out in the groups.
Current form, been that they've conceded the least goals in South American qualifing? iirc.
Easily the best side, and easily as good as Spain at the moment
