Group D Predictions

1-Germany: 7 points
2-Serbia: 5 points
3-Ghana: 4 points
4-Australia: 1 point

Germany look to glide through Group D in first place in hopes of avoiding a collision with England. This group was a lot more interesting before Michael Essien, Ghana's star midfielder who plays professionally for EPL champs Chelsea, was injured ahead of the Cup. He is out, which almost guarantees an early exit for the Black Stars.


Serbia is a very talented side with one of the world's best center-backs in Manchester United star Nemanja Vidic. He will anchor a back line alongside Chelsea's Branislav Ivanovic. In the midfield, Inter Milan's Dejan Stankovic will orchestrate with Zoran Tosic, another Manchester United star. Serbia has star power and just might come away with a huge draw against Germany. A draw or win against Germany could give Serbia a first place finish in the group, avoiding juggernaut England.
