This will be a good game and end to end. Ghana will know a lot about Serbia and they will play a very African game in attacking them. Serbia will play a very European game defending. We are predicting this to be the game of the day.

When we say defending, we don't expect Serbia to just sit back, we expect them to counter attack Ghana and that is why it will be end to end. There are no second chances in the World Cup which is why you usually see this.

The only team you'll not see doing this is Germany later. They will give us the perfect demonstration in how a team should play if they want to progress. No risks and no silly mistakes. But Ghana and Serbia and not Germany and that is why it will be end to end.

Prediction

You can not say there is an out and out winner for this match, like you could with say for example, the next team to play Greece. No, this is going to be a tight game and I think this game will be won by the team that goes for it.

I think that team is going to be Ghana. They will have a huge amount of support in the stadium and they will not want to risk not winning it and they know the only way to win this match is to play it like it is the final. The difficult thing for Ghana, maybe a little easier if they win today, will be playing like the next match is their final, but I think they'll do well.

View from the Opposition

Serbia defender, Nemanja Vidic
We have players in our side who took part in the 2006 World Cup. I think we'll need to prepare better this time. There won't be any easy opponents as each team has good players and everyone wants to appear in this event. The task won't be easy, but we're confident and think we can do ourselves justice.

Ghana coach, Milovan Rajevac
I'm confident and full of hope. I hope the players will give the best of themselves. We want to do great things with this team. We're going to concentrate on the next game and we hope to leave the World Cup having achieved some good results.

End Notes

If you read the comments from either side above, you have to agree that Ghana sound the more confident and that is the reason why I think they will win. Fortune favours the brave and I think the Black Stars will be fortunate today.
