Two slow teams. Most Saudi players don't know how to play with this level of competition. Russia not enough talent to take advantage. Team with more experience wins 1-0 or 2-0. One goal from corner or free kick combination. Penalty possible for Russia.
Uruguay very solid and favorable draw. Winning 2 games in the group is guarantee they will be favorites in first knockout match. Will high press and probably cause turnovers. Egypt disciplined defense so may be low scoring. Suarez will get booked but will cause trouble. 60-40% possession for Uruguay. 0-0 at half, 2-0 or 2-1 win for Uruguay.
Sweden an average team for Europe. But South Korea with much fewer quality players. In defense, both groups of defenders can make bad careless tackles but this only makes Sweden advantage bigger. Sweden not a fast team for Italy but a fast team for Korea. Could be similar game to Serbia Costa Rica. Sweden 2-0 or 3-0 and only 1-2 scoring chances for Korea.
game 17 Russia Egypt
Egypt capable of playing its style for a half and likely to open up later in the game. Russia assumes most of possession but like Uruguay will not create much and may be not try as hard. Russian goalkeeper will be tested. Halftime 0-0 and Full time 1-1 or 1-0 Egypt.
game 23 Argentina Croatia
Argentina with a good team but only one point with unlucky Messi. He should have a big game. Argentina can only play for the win but I think Croatia will not sit back. Argentina 1-0 at halftime and 2-2 draw in the end. I like over total goals.
game 31 Poland Colombia
Unlucky first game for both teams. Poland is healthy and Colombia questionnable. I rank this teams very even and like under total goals. Poland to lead 1-0 at halftime and 1-0 or 2-0 final result.
game 45 England Belgium
I think we see France Denmark once more. No interest in attack, just kill time and annoy fans. 0-0 at halftime and no goals by Harry Kane or Lukaku.
