World Cup 2014: Lawro's predictions - final group games
- Published
BBC Sport's football expert Mark Lawrenson is predicting the outcome of every game at the 2014 Fifa World Cup.
Defending champions Spain and England are already out, but 27 of the 32 teams go into the final round of group games with something to play for, whether it be a place in the last 16 or top spot in their group.
The final round of group games include Netherlands playing Chile in Group B, and England against Costa Rica.
Lawro is backing Argentina to win the World Cup and lift the famous trophy at the Maracana on 13 July.
Lawro was speaking to BBC Sport's Chris Bevan.
