World Cup Group Breakdown: Group C


Group C features four teams from completely different areas of the planet, with Colombia, Greece, Ivory Coast, and Japan set to meet in Brazil this summer.


Colombia, FIFA World Ranking: 5
Unlikely to make a full recovery from his knee injury, star striker Radamel Falcao will be greatly missed by the Colombians. However, the squad certainly has talent to make it out of group stages.
Predictions: Wins over Japan & Ivory Coast and Tie with Greece



Greece, FIFA World Ranking: 13
The solid Greece defense will need to work hard to hold off opponents long enough for their offense to generate some goals.
Predictions: Win over Japan and Ties with Colombia & Ivory Coast



Ivory Coast, FIFA World Ranking: 24
Yaya Toure and Didier Drogba will likely see their side underperform, in signature Ivory Coast fashion.
Predictions: Win over Japan, Loss to Colombia, and Tie with Greece



Japan, FIFA World Ranking: 48
Shinji Kagawa and his teammates will need to make the best of every little chance that may come their way.
Predictions: Losses in all three games


Group Stage Predictions:
1st. Colombia
2nd. Greece
3rd. Ivory Coast 
4th. Japan
