Russia World Cup 2018 Prediction
Russia will be very hopeful of qualifying for the knockout stages, and we think they will progress along with Uruguay from Group A. In the first knockout stage they are likely to face Portugal or Spain, which will be a very difficult game for the hosts. We don’t see them getting past this stage if they face one of the Iberian countries. Still, we have seen stranger things happen at the World Cup!
