Group F features most peoples favourites for the trophy Brazil, along with Croatia, Australia and Japan, with Brazil virtual certs to take the group, the 2nd place spot is wide open. Here are my predictions for this group:
Brazil
Brazil are most peoples tip to take the trophy home again next month, and looking at their squad (the attacking part anyway), and it’s hard to argue against their status as favourites. With Ronaldo, Robinho, Kaka and Ronaldinho they have probably the best attack in the tournament, however defensively they may struggle, but we said that last world cup, and look what happened 
. My Prediction: Group Winners.
Croatia
Pipping Sweden to the top of their qualifying group was impressive for the croats, especially after failing at the group stages 4 years ago. Their main attacking threat will come from Rangers’ Dado Prso, and with the Kovac brothers helping out defensively they have a chance of taking second place in the group, along with both Japan and Australia. My Prediction: Group Runners Up.
Australia
In only their second world cup, the Australians will be hoping to make a better impression than then they were last in Germany for the tournament. With the majority of their squad playing their football on European soil, and with players like Kewell and Emerton they have a good quality side. Defensively they may struggle however, as they generally have to cater with the quality strikeforces of Guam and Samoa. My Prediction: 4th Place.
Japan
This is Japans third world cup in a row, and they will be looking to continue with the progress shown in the last world cup, where they lost in the second round to eventual 3rd place finishers Turkey. Although most of their squad play in their native J-league, english fans will recognise Bolton’s Hidetoshi Nakata, and WBA’s Junichi Inamoto in midfield, Celtic’s Nakamura is also one of their bigger named players. My Prediction: 3rd Place.
what about Adriano?
Good point! Just shows how strong the Brazillians are.
