Yup, I listed the home team first just as FIFA.com has it. However, some of those matches are being played at neutral sites, mainly London. Maybe I should've mentioned that. The games being played in London are: Australia vs. Denmark, Greece vs. Korea, Nigeria vs. Ghana, and Brazil vs. Portugual.

Oh and Payne... It's Sweden and their Egyptian goalkeeper that'll be feeling the Pain come Wednesday
