World Cup Prediction Update for June 21

Oh man, only six out of my eleven predictions were correct in the last three days.  I hope nobody's been wagering based on this blog!  It's the draws that are killing me.  I've rarely picked Team A to beat Team B and then Team A has lost - instead, they end up drawing or, if I predict a draw, one of the teams gets a late winning goal like Ivory Coast just did against Serbia and Montenegro.

Even though picking France has cost me in their last two matches, I'm going to stick with France against Togo.  I guess, if you're a Togo fan, that's a good sign for you. :)

Group Stage, Third Round Predictions, Groups E-F

Group E: Czech Republic and Italy will draw, USA over Ghana
Group F: Brazil over Japan, Australia and Croatia will draw
Group G: France over Togo, Switzerland and South Korea will draw
Group H: Spain over Saudi Arabia, Ukraine and Tunisia will draw
