The seed team of the World Cup preliminaries refers to the stronger team in the World Cup preliminaries. In the group competition system, each group should choose the strongest team as the seed. Doing so can ensure that the strong teams will not be eliminated in advance and make the game more exciting and intense.
Strong teams will be divided into groups, one in each group, and then other seedless teams will be divided into groups by lottery to ensure uniform grouping and similar strength.
