2010 World Cup 29 June - Day 19

55th match [Round of last 16] : Paraguay v/s Japan

Both teams have played very well so long. Expect a very good match.

Paraguay Probable Starting XI: Villar, Bonet, Alcaraz, Da Silva, Morel, Vera, Barreto, Riveros, Barrios, Valdez, Santa Cruz

Japan Probable Starting XI: Kawashima, Komano, Nakazawa, Tulio, Nagatomo, Matsui, Abe, Hasebe, Endo, Okubo, Honda

My prediction(90 mins) : Paraguay 1-1 Japan [Japan to qualify]

56th match [Round of last 16] : Spain v/s Portugal

Portugal continued their long unbeaten run against Brazil. This may well continue against the European Champions, especially when Portugal is so strong in counter-attack.

Spain Probable Starting XI: Casillas, Ramos, Pique, Puyol, Capdevilla, Busquets, Martinez, Iniesta, Xavi, Villa, Torres

Portugal Probable Starting XI: Eduardo, Ferreira, Alves, Carvalho, Coentrao, Tiago, Pepe, Raul Meireles, Simao, Liedson, Ronaldo

My prediction(90 mins) : Spain 1-1 Portugal [Portugal to qualify]
