Only four remain in the Fifa World Cup, and it’s fair to say you could imagine a world where any of them could win, and it wouldn’t be a surprise.

This World Cup has served up plenty of wholesome moments from Tim Payne’s rise to social media fame, Mo Salah dancing in the street with Egyptian fans (let’s ignore it was because they beat New Zealand) or Cape Verde’s extraordinary run which ended at the hands of Argentina in extra-time.

However, underdog stories aside, it’s just the big boys who are left as the tournament turns towards the semifinals this week.

So, who are you picking? France, the slight favourites with the bookies, take on Spain in Texas on Wednesday (7am NZT), while defending champions Argentina play England the following day in Georgia.
