World Cup Group Breakdown: Group G


The tournament's second group of death, Group G will feature matches between Germany, Portugal, Ghana, and USA.


Germany, FIFA World Ranking: 2
Considered by many to be the best team in the tournament, Germany should have no problem stepping on to the field against these three teams.
Predictions: Wins in all three games


Portugal, FIFA World Ranking: 3
The Portuguese will continue to relay heavily on Cristiano Ronaldo for a good World Cup. The current FIFA Player of the Year is without a doubt the determining factor of this team's success.
Predictions: Win over Ghana, lose to Germany, and Tie with USA


Ghana, FIFA World Ranking: 38
With a defense vulnerable on the flanks, The Black Stars will rely heavily on their reliable attacking force.
Predictions: Losses to Germany & Portugal and Tie with USA


USA, FIFA World Ranking: 13
Clint Dempsey and the rest of team USA will need to throw everything they've got into group stages. Even then, they may need an upset or two to see them survive this group.
Predictions: Loss to Germany and Tie with Ghana & Portugal


Predicted Standings:
1st. Germany
2nd. Portugal
3rd. USA
4th. Ghana
