France who have scored 9 goals so far in the tournament have impressed spectators with their slick attacking style of play and now they take on the three time World Cup champions. While Didier Deschamps faces a side who are surprisingly gelling well, Joechim Low faces a tough challenge deciding his starting line-up as his squad has been hit by injuries and flu bugs. Friday, July 4 (8 PM GMT) Brazil vs Colombia, Fortaleza: The hosts Brazil escaped a scare by just about managing to knock-out Chile through penalties to reach this round. While Neymar is recovering from the several knocks he received in the previous game, James Rodriguez is getting in the mood to emulate the performance he gave against Uruguay.

Neither side has been fun to watch, but each has demonstrated an ability to get the necessary result. Lionel Messi has pulled out great performances to single-handedly help his national side. On the other hand, Belgium’s superstar Eden Hazard has been out of form in this World Cup and the national side have managed to score through a team-effort. Saturday, July 5 (8 PM GMT) Netherlands vs Costa Rica, Salvador: In a first time meeting, we could expect a thriller for sure as both sides have been playing spectacular counter-attacking football in the tournament so far.
