    World Cup Predictor

    Click here to pick the final group standings and then the winner of the knockout games.

    You get a link to your predictions if you bother signing up, but I think everyone would prefer a screenshot instead. Here's mine:

    Germany beat Brazil in the final. England don't get out the group.

    If anyone gets the last two rounds correct, @SvN will buy the trophies plugin and give you a world cup wizard badge.

    Doesn't let me screenshot (not sure how they do that) but Germany beat France in the final.

    You're mad if you think England aren't getting out of the group. Panama are too green and Tunisia are absolute horse shit.

    If we're topping our group, like shit Poland are beating us. Relative to the [inexplicable] hype that they always get going into these things, they are the worst tournament team of my lifetime. Their best result in all that time is beating a 2002 American team consisting of Brian McBride and fast food characters, and that was in spite of their hotshot blackman frauded into the set-up during the opening ceremony.

    Tunisia are terrible but they're also really niggly and dirty, so could 0-0 us off the park.

    Only African team worth a shit is Senegal, who will win their group with ease (unless Colombia are a semi team, which they aren't) and then fuck it against the first good team they play.

    All the Asian teams seem to be epically terrible these days. There are a few Euro/South American ones I know nothing about, though, and the draw is quite good, so it could be a decent show.

    Like the first 2 pictures I've got it coming down to Brazil Vs Germany in the final, but I've gone with Brazil to get revenge and win it. Similar Quarter Final line up to Baz but with France being there over Iceland and England over Colombia.

    Wasn't sure how to screenshot. Germany beat France in the final.

    I actually had the exact same QF/SF/F matchups as Wullie.

    Someone in my work is running one of these but instead of just predicting who gets out of the group and who wins each tie, you predict all the scores and win points for the correct sore even if you have completely different teams in the knockout rounds. They did it for the Euros. It's a bit mental. I'd rather they just did something like this tbh. Or you just pick the scores at each round when you know who's playing who.

    This one feels quite predictable. Does anyone have any upsets on the cards?

    I kind of feel like Argentina might be good this time around. Messi's last World Cup? Maybe not, but still, he might step up and do a bit of a Zidane

    Anyway, here's mine. I'm not sure it makes sense, doesn't really feel like Germany are currently good enough to reach the Final and I'd think France would make it further, with the team they currently have, but.

    Yeah, I can't see them getting out of their group.

    I can definitely see one of Morocco/Iran beating out Portugal to 2nd spot (I've gone for Morocco) and group C being a total shitfest which sees Peru defeating France and Denmark claiming an undeserved 1st place.

    I also have Belgium beating Brazil, which I don't think would ever happen, but why not

    Did it on my phone so not sure how to screenshot the whole thing together but I've got France winning it by beating Germany in the final.

    Also got Germany putting England out in the quarters.

    I've not done much betting prep on it yet, so I'll do it again in a month and see how different it is.

    Germany have a sneaky tough group. Any chance of an implosion? I mean, they're still Germany.

    I realised I'd somehow predicted England to the quarters and gave up in a fit of despair.

    Been going over Peru, and I've never seen anything quite like them suddenly figuring out how to play football outside of Lima last year.



    The first win against Bolivia wasn't even a win, they lost 2-0 and got awarded it because Bolivia fielded an ineligible player.

    More than anything it just highlights how utterly guff Argentina are.
