Today&#8217;s match is Russia versus Saudi Arabia and I fancy the Saudi&#8217;s to cause a minor upset and beat the Russians. For the tournament as a whole, other than expecting England to win the whole thing, I expect the usual suspects to perform well. I think Denmark, Peru and Morocco might cause some upsets.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By &#8220;It&#8221; I mean my World Cup wall chart.
