With now less than 1 month to go here is the start of the world cup predictions comp.

As with the domestic prediction comp there will be a couple of turns prize for the winner.

So what are we looking for?

1) Place each country in the position you think they will finish in their group. 2 points for each correct with a bonus of 2 if all 4 correct so a possible max of 10.
2) World cup winner 10 points
3) Losing finalist 5 points
4) Top scoring player 10 points
5) Top scoring country 10 points
6) Total goals scored in the world cup excluding penalties 20 points if exact and 10 points +/- 2

Closer to kick off I'll start putting up the individual games which will be home/away/draw and 1 point for each correct there.

Also with the odd game there will be a random prediction thrown in.

See the groups below and no real rush at the moment for your predictions:

Group A: Qatar, Ecuador, Senegal, Netherlands

Group B: England, Iran, USA, Wales

Group C: Argentina, Saudi Arabia, Mexico, Poland

Group D: France, Australia, Denmark, Tunisia

Group E: Spain, Costa Rica, Germany, Japan

Group F: Belgium, Canada, Morocco, Croatia

Group G: Brazil, Serbia, Switzerland, Cameroon

Group H: Portugal, Ghana, Uruguay, South Korea

Good luck all.
