World Cup Group G guide:
Brazil: (FIFA ranking in November 2nd)
They are obviously one of the favourites. Their manager (Dunga) is a great one and they have recently won the Copa America, the Confederations Cup, and have topped the South America qualifying group. They're so good that they don't even need Ronaldinho. Their team is amazing and it centres around the former master of the universe, Kaka. Prediction: Winners
Ivory Coast: (16)
Arguably the unluckiest team at the World Cup. In their two World Cups so far, both times they have been drawn in the group of death. They do have a great side with Drogba and the Toure brothers. It's really hard to think that one of Kaka, Ronaldo and Drogba won't be going to the second round of the World Cup. Prediction: 2nd round. I really think that they can pip Portugal to second place in the group if they try hard enough.
Portugal: (5th)
The very fact that they are ranked 5th is an outrage. They needed a narrow victory in the play-offs to be here so why should they be ranked 5th? They do have some good players in Deco and Ronaldo. Prediction: 1st round
Korea DPR: (52)
Lets just put this straight. They have no chance of going to the next round after being drawn in the group of death. Prediction: 1st round.
