The first of the semi-finals is today. We have 56 players predicting ahead of this match:
Brazil v Germany
The most popular outcome here is a draw as 25 players have gone for that. There are more players backing Germany than Brazil (19 to 12) – this is the first time in the 16 matches that Brazil have played in the last three World Cup finals that more players have gone for them to lose than have gone for them to win (inside 90 minutes). We have 15 players going for a 1-1 draw, making that the most popular prediction. Of those players, 8 have gambled on Brazil making the final and the other 7 have gone for Germany to progress. There are also two players going for it to be goalless after 90 minutes (both of whom have gambled on Germany winning). Both the 1-0 and 2-1 Germany wins have been picked by 7 players each, whilst three players have gone for them to win 2-0. There are five players going for a 2-1 Brazil win and five going for 1-0. 8 of the 12 uber-max predictions for this match are for a 2-2 draw (four players have gone for a gamble on Germany to progress and four have gone for Brazil). Each of the 3-1 and 3-2 wins to both Germany and Brazil have been selected once.
I think its fairly certain I could post the full-time write-up now on who gets the points. At least there is little danger of extra time and penalties yo complicate the scoring
