Had to shorten the thread title it wouldn't allow me any further space
My favourite group out the lot - 2 great teams and 1 team with great attacking potential. Is it safe to rule Greece out already?

One of the hardest groups to pick. Falcao's fitness is crucial for Colombia, I am aware they have other good forwards but he really is a talisman for them and also top quality. I fancy Japan over Ivory Coast. For all of Ivory Coast's top players, they have a suspect defence and arguable the worst goalkeeper in the tournament. I think Japan's fitness and brilliant attacking style will shade it.

definitely, should be a cracker. One of the highlighs of the group stages. Two distinct styles and the winner should progress. What the world cup is all about |

I'll most likely watch the games, I work nightshift so these timezones are a godsend to me.

Are Colombia still expected to top this group even without Falcao in their 23 man squad?

Should be like a home game for Colombia today. Around 60,000 of them in Belo Horizonte according to reports.
