12 Days of Qatar: Introducing FST's World Cup 2022 countdown!
Before becoming a Sports Journalist for Free Super Tips, Aaron spent three years studying Sports Journalism at the University of Sunderland while taking in the Black Cats' 'glory years' under Martin O'Neill. Now back in Northern Ireland he turns niche stats into predictions for FST, while he's one of the few people on this island who is equally comfortable at Windsor Park and the Aviva.
In two weeks’ time, the World Cup will already be underway. The tournament takes place in winter for the first time ever, so we’ve got into the Christmas spirit for our pre-tournament analysis.
With the countdown on, we’re covering the tournament from every article in this countdown to the opening game. We have 13 articles spread across 12 days, running through to the eve of the tournament.
Don’t forget to head over to FST’s Qatar World Cup 2022 predictions page for the rest of our tips, team guides and analysis ahead of this winter’s World Cup.
