Over the course of the past few months, World Cup Blog has offered its infallible predictions for each of the World Cup groups. We are so confident of the infallibility of our selections that we are willing to match wits with the smartest kids on the block: Google. Google Fight is a site that allows you to enter any two terms and the Google gurus tell you who would win in a fight.

Group Runner-Up

Conclusion: Google buys into the traditionally overhyped Spain team. We kind of do to, but Tunisia is a solid team that is going to do just enough to advance. Of all of our top group picks, Ukraine is the one that we think might crash and burn. This group might not have the sexiest teams, but it could be very wide open.
I don’t know why Ukraine is rated so highly. They have very little experience playing against non European teams.
Spain will qualify as the runner up of this group. Tunisia will shock everyone by winning this group!

This might be the first site ive seen that doesnt have spain winning this group. Gutsy call, but I find it very hard to be believe. Would be a complete disaster not to advance.

I don’t know…the Spanish realize that this group should be a cakewalk, and there will be outrage if they don’t advance. I think the players as well know that this is a golden opportunity. Finish first here, and they might be playing South Korea–payback for 2002.
