Prescene 20 - World Cup Predictions

Based on the grouping, I believe that England would be in a good position to at least reach the World Cup semi-final. On the other hand, Brazil would have to battle their way through the various stages of the finals.

I predict a mouth-watering final between Brazil and Spain, with Brazil becoming the eventual World Cup Champion again.

Here’s my prediction, and how I am going to track by success rate:-
