If Brazil will still play Jesus over Firmino and Marcelo is back in starting XI, I would give Belgium a small advantage.
Lead me, follow me, or get the hell out of my way.

On paper Belgium should smash Brazil, but I have a feeling Brazil might sneak it  :-#

Saturday7th July, 2pm game time.

All i have to say on this game is -

We still believe, we still believe
It's coming home,
It's coming home, it's coming
Football's coming home
It's coming home,
It's coming home, it's coming

Football's coming home
Tears for heroes dressed in grey
No plans for final day
Stay in bed,drift away
It could have been all

Songs in the street
It was nearly complete
It was nearly so sweet
And now I'm singing
three lions on a shirt
Jules Rimet still gleaming

Sweden however are our bogey team but honestly this has to be the best English TEAM we have witness in a long time. Its our too loose.

England (@Punyip) vs. Sweden (@Alaklondewen)
One to watch - Harry Kane (England) and Emil Forsberg (Sweden)
Prediction - England 2 - 0 Sweden


Friday 7th July, 6pm game time.

This is going to be a feisty game a very hard game to call, on paper for me Croatia just edge especially in midfield. They have special players with the likes of Luka Modric and Rakitic, by far the best pair of midfield on the pitch tomorrow. However Russia, have look a threat free flowing scoring football knocking out the European winners, and holding themselves when it needs to be. Croatia on paper are the better side, Russia will obviously have the most fans there and hosting such a brilliant tournament they could even knick it on deaths door. However I think they may start to show cracks in tomorrows game with Croatia's heartbeat in the midfield should be able to find the killer pass on goal to help push them through to the semi finals. Russia, will look lively with the crowd roaring them from the start and will use that too their advantage, they will have to pull off a masterclass like they did so against Spain, to stand a chance of progressing further. Croatia in my eyes are the dark horses, and may end Russia's dreams tomorrow in 90 minutes.

Russia (@kev pass) vs. Croatia (@Tracie)

Ones to watch - Akinfeev (Russia) and Luka Modric (Croatia)

Tuesday 10th July, 6pm game time.

Two Estonian members of the clan go head to head in this one, in what should be a thrilling game to watch. I'm a cynical England fan and think that the winner of this first semi final takes the trophy home with them. These two teams are by far the strongest left in the tournament and this match should be a true clash of the heavyweights. France breezed past Uruguay in their quarter final and were dominant, with young centreback Varane opening the scoring. Mbappe was fairly quiet in this game but it was his strike partner Griezmann who provided the first goal assist as well as sealing France's spot in the semi finals with a goal of his own. Blaise Matuidi will return to the squad, a solid player in the middle of the park, he will surely make a difference. France have history on their side here, winning the last 3 meetings between these teams and have also won their last two semi finals. Belgium are a new team under Roberto Martinez and boast a very exciting squad. They were fantastic against a strong Brazil side, scoring two goals in the first half, effectively sealing the tie. A piece of pure brilliance from playmaker Kevin de Bruyne stole the show as he shot from distance to assert Belgium dominance on this match. He continues to have the season of his life, how far could he take Belgium? They are a somewhat inexperienced team at this level of a major competition (largely because they are only recently serious contenders) and their key men will have to perform if they are to beat this strong France squad. There is no doubt Belgium have the talent to see this one through with the likes of Hazard, Lukaku and Mertens looking as good as ever. The manager has a lot of players to pick from, will he change his tactics? As he did so against Brazil or revert to a more familiar formation? This match should be fascinating, I can see an end to end counter attacking game with many chances. As much as I'd love to see Belgium win, I think the French will edge it. Maybe in extra time.

France (@Karli) vs. Belgium (@Ardo)

One to watch - Kylian Mbappe (France) and Kevin de Bruyne (Belgium)
Prediction - France 1-1 Belgium, France win 2-1 in extra time


What is your prediction? :)

Why are you all still underestimating Belgium?
Belgium has best squad at the moment but just because they are not one of the big (Germany, Brazil, Spain, France, Italy), people don't seem to take them seriously.
Belgium is currently stronger than France, they will win today and will win on sunday.
