World Cup Countdown - Group H

Saudi Arabia - Ukraine - Spain - Tunisia
The final group holds no surprises, again you can expect the European teams to dominate. The Saudi's are at their fourth World cup final and will have some experience to bring to the table. However they have no real threats that could possibly worry either Spain or the Ukraine.

Spain carry the tag of constant under achievers and in many ways have been handed an easy route to the last eight here. Should they manage to fill their potential then they will face a very average Swiss side in the last sixteen. This could be their year especially as this group should give them confidence to beat teams.

The Ukraine have one of the best strikers in the World in Andre Shevchenko, and he has the potential to carry them to the last sixteen and a clash with France. Tunisia are yet another African side who have not shown their best form this year and will have to make a vast improvement to worry any of these sides. I expect them to get one victory but that is all. The group will end up looking like this
1. Spain
2. Ukraine
3. Tunisia
4. Saudia Arabia
