We've reached the quarter-final stage of the World Cup and from this stage on, normal Footy Predicta rules apply.
Predict HW, AW or D for each of the matches, giving a value to each, depending on how confident you are. A correct prediction results in the value you assigned to that match being multiplied by 10 and you being awarded that number in points. If you are incorrect, the value you assigned is deducted from your score.
In this round use values: 8 and 4
We are predicting on the outcome of matches at the end of normal time.
Uruguay v Holland (Tuesday, 7:30)
Germany v Spain (Wednesday, 7:30)

This is where it gets tough... Holland v Brazil (Fri Jul 2, 3:00) AW 2 Uruguay v Ghana (Fri Jul 2, 7:30) HW 6 Argentina v Germany (Sat Jul 3, 3:00) D 4 Paraguay v Spain (Sat Jul 3, 7:30) AW 8 I will be on holiday from Friday until after the end of the world cup, and internet access is uncertain. I might just attempt to predict all combinations of matches later  |

Brazil and Holland met in World Cup 98 and Brazil won on penalties. Spain met Paraguay in the same world cup in the group stage and they drew 0-0 although Paraguay and not Spain qualified from the group. Germany and Argentina met in the last world cup and Germany won on penalties.

Bother, I've missed the first one. I guess that means I can't pick the rest, because of the 8-6-4-2 rule ?
If I can, then I go:-
4: D: Uruguay v Ghana
6: H: Argentina v Germany
8: A: Paraguay v Spain

Never got round to doing this and not sure i'll get round to doing the semis if i don't do them now, so here goes:
H Holland-Uruguay - Top prediction
H Germany-Spain
Should be able to do the 3rd place playoff match before its played once the line up has been confirmed.

Frag seems to have "confused" the semis but has predicted the possible outcomes as final/3rd place games, predicting both Holland and Spain to win.
