Here it is! The first part of this year's World Cup Predicta! Predict the outcome of the matches, choosing home, away or draw (for the purposes of this game, the team listed first is deemed to be the "home" team). You score 2 points for each one you get right. HOWEVER, each player has a joker, which they can play for ONE of the EIGHT groups. If you play your joker for a group, you score double points for all matches in that group. You can predict the matches in any order you want, as long as all predictions are made before kick-off for that game. However, you must play your joker before any matches have kicked off in that group. To play your joker, just place this symbol:  next to your predictions for that group. Here are Groups A-D: GROUP AFri June 11: South Africa v Mexico (Johannesburg (Soccer City), 3:00) Fri June 11: Uruguay v France (Cape Town, 7:30) Wed June 16: South Africa v Uruguay (Pretoria, 7:30) Thu June 17: France v Mexico (Polokwane, 7:30) Tue June 22: Mexico v Uruguay (Rustenberg, 3:00) Tue June 22: South Africa v France (Bloemfontein, 3:00) GROUP BSat June 12: South Korea v Greece (Port Elizabeth, 12:30) Sat June 12: Argentina v Nigeria (Johannesburg (Ellis Park), 3:00) Thu June 17: Argentina v South Korea (Johannesburg (SC), 12:30) Thu June 17: Greece v Nigeria (Bloemfontein, 3:00) Tue June 22: Nigeria v South Korea (Durban, 7:30) Tue June 22: Greece v Argentina (Polokwane, 7:30) GROUP CSat June 12: England v USA (Rustenberg, 7:30) Sun June 13: Algeria v Slovenia (Polokwane, 12:30) Fri June 18: Slovenia v USA (Johannesburg (EP), 3:00) Fri June 18: England v Algeria (Cape Town, 7:30) Wed June 23: Slovenia v England (Port Elizabeth, 3:00) Wed June 23: USA v Algeria (Pretoria, 3:00) GROUP DSun June 13: Serbia v Ghana (Pretoria, 3:00) Sun June 13: Germany v Australia (Durban, 7:30) Fri June 18: Germany v Serbia (Port Elizabeth, 12:30) Sat June 19: Ghana v Australia (Rustenberg, 3:00) Wed June 23: Ghana v Germany (Johannesburg (SC), 7:30) Wed June 23: Australia v Serbia (Nelspruit, 7:30) |
