This group looks very interesting. I am looking forward to seeing the opener on Thursday night, although it is a pity that Mandzukic is suspended. I would fancy Croatia to get a draw if he had been fit.
It is hard to see past Brazil to win the group, but I wonder who will chase them home.

Here is what I am thinking:
Brazil vs. Croatia under 2.5 goals 11/10 2pts.
Mexico to finish bottom 3/1 2pts.
Brazil - Croatia forecast 7/4 1pt.
