The podcast team have made their predictions for the South African World Cup, with Argentina, Brazil and Spain among their favourites.

Assistant Editor Carl Jones thinks Serbia will be the dark horses, National News Editor Dave Burrows hopes Portugal are knocked out, sports writer James Garrison believes an all South-American final is in store with free-scoring Argentina emerging victorious while Chris Hudson says we shouldn’t rule out the Germans. Sports writer Alex James believes Holland will emerge while host Andy Richardson predicts a round-two KO for England.

Beyond the touchlines, will there be bust-ups and dust-ups, lingering images of scantily-clad Brazilian girls, will Adrian Chiles nick it for ITV and, more importantly, who’ll be buying the take away pizzas?
