It does look like the quarterfinal winner between France-England will play in the final. Spain are too young and inexperienced for those two, while Portugal and Switzerland aren't good enough.
Brazil are the obvious favorite among the other four, especially if Neymar's back. I don't see the Netherlands or the winner of Japan-Croatia going to the final. Perhaps Argentina.
So, in this order: 1. Brazil-France; 2. Brazil-England; 3. Argentina-France; 4. Argentina-England - that's what the final will be.

Boring knockouts :(
The favorites were simply too good for the outsiders, and the latter failed to take their chances at 0:0 (or at 2:1 in Australia's case) to make the matches more interesting.

As always and backed up by history numerous times, when England finally face a good team they will lose. You simply cannot win a major tournament without playing any good teams. It took them 20 years to win a penalty shootout and 'build confidence' to then lose to Italy on penalties, at Wembley. Nothing is coming home, ever.

We’ve gone from the Cup of surprises in the group stages to the Cup of predictable, dreary inevitabilities in the knockouts.

Odds are that we should get a couple upsets out of the next four matches. If not, we may sleepwalk through this.
