I'm agree with Brazil vs Mexico for Brazil win.
Belgium vs Japan this 1 gonna be heavy, i know Belgium is a strong team, but we cant underestimate Japan, because Japan also a solid team where they hungry with goal.
My guess will be
Brazil vs Mexico Brazil win
Belgium vs Japan Over 2.5
extra prediction Japan win

Day 3 of the Round of 16 matches. We have the favorites Brazil and Belgium facing Mexico and Japan respectively. There is nothing special to analyze about these 2 matches - Brazil and Belgium need to win. And because the odds are low I am going to parlay Brazil FT & Belgium FT. I hope they will do their job within 90 minutes and not go into extra time like the 2 matches yesterday evening. Good luck guys 
I fancy France to beat Uruguay. Uruguay have Suarez and Cavani but France have much more talent in their squad. Kylian Mbappe is in form and he is tearing up the opposing defences like there is no tomorrow. Football is unpredictable though and underdogs can get the better of favorites and that's why it's such a great sport to watch 
Onto the Spain - Russia match. The Spanish defence has been shaky and De Gea hasn't been showing his best lately. Russia started strong vs mediocre teams but once they faced a serious team like Uruguay they got beaten badly 3-0. However being the host country and having all these fans on the stadium I think Russia will be very motivated today and hopefully will score a goal. I am going with both teams to score. Also eyeing the over 2.5 goals market for a live bet. Happy watching

Could I do my own prediction here? This year Croatia has appeared to be strong and I love such surprises when a team starts to beat the odds. Last night event was an unfortunate outcome for Ronaldo and his team, Why I say Ronaldo? Because I think Portugal has only a key player and he is the one deciding on their success, Like Messi for Argentina. Two great teams are now gone and I'm hoping for either Croatia or Brazil to win the cup of this year. Let us see what happens. Could we have another France vs Brazil finale though?

France is not good enough to reach the finals. Their next match (quarter-final) is against Uruguay and the chances are that they'll lose it. Brazil looks strong however... Hopefully they'll beat Mexico tomorrow..

Ronaldo didn't have a day and Portugal ran out of luck. Uruguay were overall the better team and deserved the win more. Cavani is a world class striker and outshined everyone today. I hope he didn't suffer a serious injury and will be fit for the next match. The referee made a lot of questionable choices though especially at the end. When Ronaldo gets shut down Portugal can't win.
Clearly Uruguay were much of a superior team. There was no clear style for Portugal playing wide will not give as a positive result to the defense of Uruguay. Godin played all of Simeoni's defensive lessons. Uruguay have two defense lines, Godin in one line and the other defenders in onther line.Uruguay played on the speed and and good spreading in field excellent style, but it quickly drains the team. As for Ronaldo he was bad and without concentration, and no Creativity or even good positionning as if he had lost hope since the early goal.
Finally, the best has scored, and the worst is not worth to complete the journey, thanks Uruguay and especialy cavani for this entertainement now he is tied as second best striker in tournament alongside Lukau and Ronaldo with four goals i hope he makes it at the end to face france him and Suarez will be a deadly duo that will be amazing to see play aginst 2016 Euro finalist.

Hello guys first match day of the Round of 16 is finally here! Are you excited? I am for sure 
I have heard that the Argentinians have been practising penalties so maybe they are going to employ defensive tactics vs France and play on the counter attack. In that case I am gonna bet first half 0-0 correct score @ 2.15
Portugal is known for their defensive play as well and keeping in mind how they played their last 2 games vs Morocco and Iran scoring a single goal and also how they played during the Euro 2016 knockout stage I think it's safe to say we won't see many goals tonight in the Portugal - Uruguay match. I like HT 0-0 correct score. I will play a small side parlay combining both bets for a total of 4.5 odds. Cheers
The game is currently tied with Pepe equalizing for Portugal after Edison Cavani scored for Uruguay in the first half of the game.

Germany is missing some players from the squad that won the trophy in Brazil 4 years ago. 2 midfielders - Bastian Schweinsteiger and Philipp Lahm and 3 forwards - Lukas Podolski, Mario Goetze and Miroslav Klose. These players were good however it's not like Germany doesn't have equal or even better players in its current squad. The younger generation is very promising too. Philipp Lahm was great and probably irreplaceable though. I think a lot of the German players looked very slow, tired and disinterested in the World Cup in Russia. Perhaps that's due to the long and tiresome seasons in their clubs or something? If Low remains as manager he will need to do a complete overhaul of the team for the next Euro tourney.
i agree with you Germany losing these legends have been one of the many reason that they left us so early. i think they players that played in last world cup and particiapated in this one were so not hungry for this tournament they showed 0 effort to win games only Toni Kroos showed some decent performances the rest were just ghosts. And no offense for Muller is finshed he knows nothing but grabbing his head after losing the goal. Timo Werner is the great disaster if they think he is a talent, it will happen to them what happened to Italy as for Mario Gomez no comments on him because it will have to write a book explaining how bad he waws and i still don't know how Muller were last tournament best scorer the man knows just one thing in football and that how he positions himself the rest is just crap Previouse world cup winner curse still alive, as you can see its start after Italy win world cup and in the next world cup they performe very poor and than Spain and now German
Well, I have come to the point that I don't have a clue who will take the trophy home... I still think that Brasil and maybe Belgium have the most talent and difference making players but after the group stage I would not bet a penny on anyone... And that is a good sign, finally it gets interesting now!

South Korea might be already not qualified to next round but Korean people will always remember they national team already made new history with defeat big team and former world cup champion Germany and i'm pretty sure they will satisfied from that but otherwise will be remembered for Germany people that they will remember bad history from their national team
Do you guys know that after Mexico advanced to the knockout stage with the help of South Korea which beat Germany a big crowd circled the South Korean embassy in Mexico and the South Korean ambassador drank tequila and chanted with the Mexican fans in the street haha. I am wondering if some Japanese fans went to the Colombian embassy in Tokyo as well to celebrate with the Colombian ambassador because of the great favor
Hahah this is insane I'll have to check this out, Germany was always going to crash don't know why some people are so upset they crashed. Right before the tournament their players looked out of form, their coach struggled with basic formation and line up. Plus the winner curse was also a factor. So far none of the teams look like winners let's see how it goes.
It finally starts to get interesting now that we are in the knockout phase, round of 16. Should be some really good games, bit disappointed they don’t start today

The journey of the FIFA World Cup 2018 was really crazy there were many unexpected events that happened throughout the games. There are many shocking wins that happened and losses, one of it is that my team, Germany actually lost and got eliminated from the playoffs which they are the most expected to win again like the last FIFA World Cup. Same thing as for Argentina which they almost also got eliminated from it. It is actually fun to watch this kind of games which you really can't say who is gonna win this tournament but one thing is for sure that many people are celebrating and having fun.
