I don't know - I know of a few upsets, e.g. Greece European champion, Turkey and South Korea making semifinals in the world championships, etc.

Another thing - who do you expect to win?

My ranking from biggest chance to win down would be:

1. Brazil (always a very good team)

2. Germany (can win even if they do not have a good team, and the team is always better than people give it credit for)

3. Italy (also know how to win - different from Germany, yet the same effect)

4. Spain (even if they have a good team, and often they have really good players, they do not know how to win)

5. Netherlands (a perpetual heart-breaker - but they go in with a tremendous record)

6. England (could not think of a team to rank above them, but 6 seems high - great league, but the national team isn't so hot)

7. Argentina (used to be very good, but has disappointed during all last tournaments, and the coach was a better as a player)

8. Portugal (dangerous)

9. France (had a bad campaign, do not seem to 'click')

10. USA (because they'll fight for it. Not having the tradition is a huge handicap though).
