While they are similar in terms of chess strength, the semantic argument would be that you cannot have two favorites. For the purpose of the list you have to pick one.
I think China has better chances than USA. Wei yei was phenomenal in this yr's Tata steel. If Ding comes back in form, they will be close to unstoppable.
They were the dark horse last time around and went on to win the tournament.. But if you want to bet on a team to win the tournament this time it has to be either usa or India.. Doesnt necessarily mean than Uzbekistan doesn't have any chances
