Here is a brief Group C preview for the World Cup. I will give my full tournament predictions on Wednesday and give a more in-depth preview of every World Cup match throughout the tournament.
Teams: Colombia, Greece, Ivory Coast, Japan
Group Overview: Colombia went on an extraordinary run in World Cup qualifying thanks to striker Radamel Falcao. Unfortunately Falcao suffered a knee injury in January and will miss the tournament. Ivory Coast and Japan are the best bets to finish second in the group but you can never count out Greece in any soccer tournament.
Players to watch: James Rodriquez (Colombia), Giorgos Karagounis (Greece), Yaya Toure (Ivory Coast), Keisuke Honda (Japan)
Prediction (win-draw-loss):
1. Colombia 2-1-0
2. Ivory Coast 1-2-0
3. Japan 1-1-1
4. Greece 0-0-3
