Juan Guarnizo’s Tier List for the Kings World Cup 2025
The President of Colombia has made his prediction for the 16 teams in the Kings World Cup Nations 2025
The Kings World Cup Nations 2025 brings together a total of 16 national teams dreaming of conquering the inaugural edition of the tournament, and Juan Guarnizo has shared his Tier List about the tournament’s outcome.
With a prediction sure to spark plenty of opinions, the Colombian streamer has highlighted his surprises and disappointments. Here are Guarnizo’s favorite teams for the KWC Nations.
The first teams eliminated
Guarnizo predicts that Italy, Saudi Arabia, South Korea, and Ukraine will be the first teams to bid farewell to the tournament. These four squads also crashed out in their Kings World Cup debut, meaning their survival in the tournament will hinge on a do-or-die match in the second round.
Despite Italy’s status as the host or the presence of players like Kim Hyun-sung and Lee Bum-young in the South Korean squad, the streamer believes their journey in the Nations will end with a second consecutive defeat.
His four eliminations in the Last Chance
In the Last Chance phase, where nations with one win and one loss from the first two rounds face off, the teams Juan Guarnizo believes will be eliminated are Morocco, Uzbekistan, the United States, and Germany.
The Uzbekistani Unwanted Boys are one of the tournament’s biggest surprises, and Morocco boasts a young star in their lineup. However, the Colombian predicts they will share the same fate as the Germans and Americans.
Quarterfinals: the end of the dream for some big names
For the quarterfinals, Guarnizo has forecasted that Argentina, Turkey, Japan, and Mexico will see their participation in the KWCN come to an end.
The elimination of La Albiceleste is particularly surprising, as they showcased their strength by defeating Spain in their opening match.
Equally surprising is his prediction for the Mexicans and the Ottomans, who were led to victory by Suad Ak in their Kings World Cup debut against Ukraine.
Spain and Peru, one step from the final
In the semifinals, the defeat of Peru and Spain would mark the end of a remarkable run for both teams in this Kings World Cup Nations 2025.
For this prediction to come true, both La Roja and the Peruvian squad will need to overcome their matches on the losers side in the second round first.
Colombia, Juan Guarnizo’s champion
Juan Guarnizo’s prediction concludes with a final between the team he leads, Colombia, and Brazil. And as expected, La Tricolor would etch their name in gold letters.
For Guarnizo, his team has all the tools and character necessary to lift the title in the grand final of the Kings World Cup Nations, which will take place in Turin on January 12. Will his final prediction come true?
