    Wow this really is a big change. Looking at the ranking I really bite my *** why we haven't won against Syria. Pushing to be in pot 2 would be excellent tbh. We avoid all team I our pot + all Asians vs. The scenario that we avoid Asia and Concacaf (which would be the most probable scenario) is a huge huge advantage tbh

      yes well said! russia friendly will be a huge opportunity to gain some valuaböe fifa points if we can win it. shame we lost a lot of points vs syria. unreal if iran could end up in pot 2 would be historical chance to finish top 2 in group

              No. Imagine if the Pot 4 teams are Burkina Faso, SK,Japan, Saudi, Australia, Montenegro, Ireland, Greece.

              We can only be grouped with Burkina Faso, Montenegro, Ireland or Greece

                No they cannot in case an asian team would be drawn to irans group from pot 4 they would automatically go in the next non asian group. It follows pretty much the logic for champions league draws. There you cant have teams from same countries in one group yet they are not necessarily placed in one pot but the pots are determined by uefa ranking. This will now happen at the world cup as well.

                    The new World Cup Draw system is great news for Iran.

                    Basically, this means we will avoid a group of death with 100% certainty. (For info: I consider a group of death a group with 3 powerful teams)

                    Anyway, Iran is going to be placed in Pot 3, while the other Asian teams and African teams will be in Pot 4.

                    However, the rule is that teams from the same confederation cannot be drawn in the same group, with the exception of UEFA. That means the only opponents we can get from Pot 4 are African teams.

                    The scenario for the draw will likely be as follows:

                    Pot 1 (Seeded)
                    Russia
                    Germany
                    Brazil
                    Portugal
                    Argentina
                    Belgium
                    Poland
                    Switzerland

                    Pot 2
                    France
                    Chile
                    Colombia
                    Spain
                    Mexico
                    England
                    Uruguay
                    Italy

                    Pot 3
                    Croatia
                    Northern Ireland
                    Costa Rica
                    Sweden
                    Iran
                    Serbia
                    USA
                    Tunisia

                    Pot 4
                    Egypt
                    Japan
                    South Korea
                    Australia
                    Saudi Arabia
                    Ivory Coast
                    Nigeria
                    Burkina Faso

                    As you can see, we avoid all the 2nd tier European teams. Also, only the African teams from Pot 4 can be possible opponents for Iran. That means the only Pots we really have to worry about are Pot 1 and 2. With a bit of luck, we can avoid a combo of top teams such as Germany+Spain, or Argentina+France.

                    Hopefully we get a group like this:

                    Portugal
                    Chile
                    Iran
                    Egypt

                    Or

                    Poland
                    Mexico
                    Iran
                    Ivory Coast

                      I hope we don't get easy teams because we will lose to them...

                        Tunisia

                        Pot 4

                        Every pot 2 team is strong. The new seeding system may be bad news.

                          r u serious. I doubt we would advance from either of thsoe groups.

                          best chance we have is Russia, Colombia, Iran, Burkina Faso

                          or

                          Switzerland, Mexico, Iran , Egypt.

                                would have been possible in the old logic. We will avoid that which is great!!!
