Because the Group games don't finish until Friday and the Last 16 games start on Saturday (so not much time to try and predict all 8 games at once) I have decided to split the Last 16 games into two so there are predictions to be made for the first 4 games on Saturday and Sunday and then again for the last 4 games on Monday and Tuesday. This is the thread for the first 4 games, the thread for the last 4 games can be found here - https://www.not606.com/threads/world-cup-week-3-last-16-part-2-5-6-december.403951/
I reckon if I predicted the scores now without knowing the teams then I would probably do better than if I waited
