Actually, we already know that the four groups are formed by

 

JPN/KOR + MEX/HON + ROU/FRA

BRA/ARG + GER/ESP + AUS/KSA

 

Only pot 3 (Africa/New Zealand) will be drawn completely without restrictions.

stupid question, in football it's 19 quotas, not 18?

 

I saw it written on wikipedia

Men's team event – one team of 19 players (initially the IOC approved of 18 players, but they agreed FIFA on expanding them up to 19 players)
