Predictions

The top three teams of Italy, Denmark, and the Czech Republic will battle it out for the two spots here.  Italy, finalists at Euro 2012 are heavy favorites with strong players like Mario Balotelli, Andrea Pirlo, and Daniele De Rossi.  Denmark and the Czech Republic both reached Euro 2012 and have decent sides, but only one will earn the secondary playoff spot.  The two teams will face off in match day one and will likely be fighting until the final day.  We predict that the Czech Republic will earn the playoff spot due to the great goalkeeper they have in Petr Cech.
