Italy will get shocked by the Czech's & Americans and be given an early ticket back home. Put money on the Italians not getting out of the first round!!! It will be the biggest story of the World Cup and the biggest shock of the tournament.

Brazil! They sure have not impressed any one this World Cup, they look like they  are tired and worried.  Their group is an easy group and in round 16 drawing will also be easy for them, they never have had a difficult drawing..it sure would be interesting if there group consisted of 1st Class Europeans, that would show how good they truly are.  Good Luck Brazil

Brazil once again has one of the strongest squads, germany is dangerous this year mainly because it is in their home country but they are not the team they were in the previous cup, Spain once again has a strong team with young torres in the front line, and to surprise teams you might see this year are ghana with Essien and Australia with Hiddink managing the squad this year

The best team so far is Argentina.\nThe worst (and most disappointing too) is Serbia and Montenegro.\nThe surprise is Australia.\n\nJuventina: I have said "so far" which is two games... probably futher ahed other teams will play better :)

They've had another poor world cup campaign, considering they have a great team on paper. If they do somehow get past the knock-out stages, I don't see them getting much further

Argentina! I think they just might win the World Cup this year. They are not the team I am rooting for but after having watched them play they look very good to continue onto the semi-finals.

Judging from last night's performance, I'm afraid Holland's not gonna make it past Portugal. Here's my pick:\n\nGermany (vs Sweden), England (vs Ecuador), Portugal (vs Holland), Argentina (vs Mexico), Brazil, Czech Rep., South Korea and Spain.
