CANADA
The Canadians were in top form in the World Cup Qualifiers as they topped the table ending with 28 points to their name. Even Mexico, who came second ended on the same number of points, but Canada eventually finished the group on top.
They were really good in front of goal as they scored as many as 23 goals in their campaign, while only managing to allow their net to be breached 7 times. Out of the 14 games that they played, they won 8 and only lost 2, which shows that this team had the knack to go around and win games, while also scoring a good number of goals. Even though the quality of the opponents will be quite different in the World Cup, Canada will be hoping to continue their run of form.

TEAM NEWS
Canada is touted to play in a 4-2-3-1 formation in Qatar. Their young team has been playing in this formation and sometimes the 4-4-2 as well (against stronger opposition) for quite some time now. They rely on defending deep and then hitting their opposition on the counter-attack and this template has been working out for them so far.
While Davies plays as a left-back for Bayern Munich, he tends to be deployed as a left midfielder for the Maple Leafs and he can be quite a threat on the left when they are counterattacking. They have a relatively younger squad compared to a number of teams and this will be quite a good test for the young players to show their skill on the biggest stage.
