Spain  – Germany

Germany

  • Their 4-0 defeat of Argentina was the third time in 5 games that Germany scored 4 goals in a match after defeating Australia 4-0 and England 4-1. They have scored the most goals at the 2010 World Cup – 13.
  • The Nationalmannschaft has won 3 World Cups and finished as runner-up 4 more times.
  • The two nations have met 20 times – Germany have won 8 and Spain 6, with 6 draws.
  • Miroslav Klose has scored 14 goals in 18 World Cup games, and is just one short of the all-time record held by Brazilian star Ronaldo.
  • Thomas Muller is suspended and the Bayern Munich starlet will be a big miss as he has scored 4 goals from 4 shots on target in this tournament.

Spain

  • Spain will be playing in their first ever World Cup semi final.
  • The last encounter between these two nations was in the Euro 2008 final – La Furia Roja won 1-0 thanks to a Fernando Torres strike.
  • David Villa has scored 5 of team’s 6 goals in South Africa, assisted the other and had 23 shots. He is Spain’s top scorer in World Cup history with 8 goals and is one goal away from equalling Raul’s record of 44 goals for his natonal team.
  • Coach Vicente del Bosque will have to make the tough decision of dropping Fernando Torres from the starting line-up as the Liverpool striker has been in disappointing form in the World Cup.
  • Centre-back Raul Albiol is still injured.

Germany- Argentina

Argentina

  • The Albiceleste have won 12 of their last 13 games and their only slip-up was a 2-1 defeat to Spain last November.
  • Argentina have looked great going forwards but their defence has showed signs of fallibility. Germany have issues at the back too so it is unlikely that the match will be a defensive affair.
  • Argentina have yet to draw a match under Diego Maradona – they have won 18 and lost 5 of his 23 matches in charge.
  • Lionel Messi has had 23 shots at goal in South Africa but has yet to score while Gonzalo Higuain jointly leads the tournament’s goalscoring charts with 4.
  • Centre-back Walter Samuel is a doubt.

Germany

  • Die Mannschaft turned on the power against England in the last round, swamping them 4-1 in a superb display of attacking football.
  • There are a few concerns at the back for the Germans – goalkeeper Neur was very shaky against England and the centre-back duo Mertesacker-Friedrich look like the weak link in the side.
  • These two teams have met 5 times before in the competition’s history – the Germans has 3 victories to Argentina’s only one.
  • Miroslav Klose’s opener against England was the 12th World Cup goal of his career.
  • Striker Cacau is a doubt.

Uruquay – Ghana

Uruguay

  • The Celeste have reached the World Cup quarter-finals for the first time since 1970.
  • The South Americans are unbeaten in their last 6 World Cup games, including their last 2 group matches in 2002 (which were both drawn), keeping 4 clean sheets in the process.
  • The Uruguayans have conceded only 1 goal in 4 games so far in South Africa.
  • Strike duo Diego Forlan and Luis Suarez have contributed 5 goals between them already.
  • Centre-back Diego Godin is doubtful with a thigh injury.

Ghana

  • The Black Stars became only the third African side in history to reach the World Cup quarter-finals, after Cameroon in 1990 and Senegal in 2002, and victory would make them the first to reach the semi-finals.
  • Ghana have picked up unprecedented support while they remain the last hope for Africa in the World Cup.
  • No African side has ever won a World Cup knock-out match without the game going to extra-time.
  • Asamoah Gyan has scored 3 times in South Africa, and also netted at the 2006 World Cup.
  • Jonathan Mensah and Andre Ayew are suspended while John Mensah and Kevin-Prince Boateng are doubts.

Netherlands – Brazil
Netherlands

  • Holland carried their impressive pre-World Cup form into the tournament itself and they have won all the matches in South Africa. They are now on a 23-game unbeaten run and have won all 8 of their games in 2010.
  • The Oranje have only conceded 4 goals in their last 8 World Cup matches, keeping 4 clean sheets in the process.
  • This will be the 10th meeting between these sides – Brazil have won 3 to the Netherlands’ 2, with 4 draws. 5 of the last 6 encounters between the pair have produced over 2.5 goals.
  • Wesley Sneijder is team’s most potent attacking threat so far with 15 shots, 5 of which have hit the target, and he has bagged 4 goals in his last 6 internationals.
  • Arjen Robben’s return to the first team has been a major plus, hitting the target with all 3 of his shots and opening the scoring against Slovakia.

Brazil

  • The Selecao showed their class against an open Chile side (that had given Spain a scare in the group stage), racing into a two-goal lead by half-time.
  • The Brazilians have only lost 1 of their last 30 games. That came in their penultimate qualifier, a game played at altitude in Bolivia after qualification had already been achieved.
  • The South Americans have conceded just 4 goals in their last 11 World Cup matches.
  • Brazil have participated in all 18 previous World Cups, and have won the most world titles (5).
  • Luis Fabiano has hit 13 goals in his last 13 competitive appearances for his national team.
  • Robinho has forced more shots than anybody else in the team with 10, but scoring just 1 goal so far.
  • Midfielder Ramires is suspended while playmaker Elano is injured. Felipe Melo and Julio Baptista are doubtful.

Spain – Portugal

Spain

  • La Roja were the pre-tournament favourites but they haven’t looked at their best in the World Cup so far.
  • Portugal have won only 5 of their previous 32 meetings with Spain in all competitions.
  • David Villa has been team’s best and most consistent player so far, having scored 3 goals. He has scored 6 goals in 6 starts in World Cups and is now the all-time top scorer for his country at the tournament.
  • Centre-back Raul Albiol is out while midfielder Xabi Alonso is a doubt.

Portugal

  • The Portuguese have gone 19 games unbeaten under coach Carlos Queiroz.
  • Seleccao have a brilliant defensive record – they have yet to concede a goal in the World Cup so far and have kept 22 clean sheets in their last 26 matches.
  • Portugal don’t have a great striker or a prolific goalscorer but with Cristiano Ronaldo and Simao on the wings, they are very deadly on the counter-attacks.
  • Midfielder Danny and Ruben Amorim are doubts.

Paraguay – Japan

Paraguay

La Albiroja have always been known as a hard-working team with  a             solid defense

  • The two sides have met 6 times previously – Paraguay have recorded 2 wins to Japan’s one, though the Asians prevailed in the most recent friendly in 2003.
  • Key midfielder Victor Caceres is suspended.

Japan

  • 2 of the Japanese 3 goals against Denmark in their final group game came direct from free-kicks.
  • Japan managed only 30 attempts in claiming second place in Group E – 6 fewer than Paraguay.
  • The Blue Samurai are organised at the back, and they can fall into defensive mode quite easily.

Brazil-Chile

Brazil

  • The Selecao are unbeaten in the tournament so far (W2, D1) and their pragmatic approach would appear ideally suited to knockout football.
  • The Brazilians defeated Chile both home (4-2) and away (3-0) in qualification for the finals.
  • Kaka, Elano and Robinho will be available after missing the draw with Portugal.
  • Felipe Melo and Julio Baptista are doubts.

Chile

  • Chile began their World Cup campaign with 2 wins. In their final group game they matched Spain impressively, playing much of the match with 10 men, yet went down 2-1 and looked a little nervous at times.
  • In 65 previous meetings against the Selecao, the Chileans have recorded just 7 successes, scoring nearly 100 goals less than their opponents during those fixtures.
  • Midfielders Matias Fernandez and Carlos Carmona return after bans.
  • Defenders Gary Medel, Waldo Ponce and midfielder Marco Estrada are all suspended while top striker Humberto Suazo is a doubt.

Paraguay – New Zeeland

Paraguayi stačí k postupu remíza, ovšem vítězství jim zajistí první místo ve skupině, čímž se vyhnou
ve vyřazovací části Holandsku. Z posledních 13ti zápasů Paraguay 12 vyhrála bez obdržené branky.
Nováý Zéland je nejefektivnější reprezentací na mistrovství světa. Vstřelila 2 góly z puhých 3 střel
na bránu!

Italy – Slovakia

Sice Slovensko má puze 1bod ze dvou zápasů, nicméně vítězství by je posunulo do vyřazovací části.
Ovšem Slovensko má velice slabý útok. Ve dvou zápasech měli pouhé 3 střely na bránu. Itálie je pod
velkým tlakem. Jsou také velmi slabí v útoku, snad ještě více než Slováci. S Paraguayí dali gol po
chybě golmana, s Novým Zélandem vyrovnali pouze díky darované penaltě.
V posledních třech zápasech na mistrovství světa třikrát remizovali, a ve 4 z 6ti posledních vyřazovacích
zápasů byly remízy 1:1.
Brankář Buffon je stále zraněný.

Danmark – Japan

Dánové, chtějí-li postoupit, musí porazit Japonsko. Dánsko vyhrálo 10 z posledních 15 zápasů z asijskými
mužstvy. Obránce Kjaer nemůže hrát z důvodu žlutých karet.
Japonsko je velmi dobře takticky připravené, zvláště v obraně. Dosud obdrželi pouze 1 gol, a 3 z
posledních 4 gólů padly po střelách mimo pokutové území.Japonsko vyhráloí pouze jeden ze 6ti posledních
zápasů z evropskými mužstvy, pokud počítáme zápasy na mistrovství světa.
