Japan seem to be on a down swing coming into this tournament, if Samoa get over them & Chile then they potentially only need a result against England or Argentina to go through. Its going to be a pool as interesting as C for sure. If England don't get their s%(t together and their heads go down after a loss to Argentina they could be vulnerable. Form coming in its pretty hard for me to see anyone other than Argentina topping this one but a disastrous run of cards in a game like 2019 would cost them.
