Arguably the most open and difficult to predict of the eight sections, Group C involves four teams with no shared FIFA World Cup history whatsoever. What can be guaranteed is an intriguing inter-continental clash of styles, with Colombias South American flair going up against teams - Japan, Côte dIvoire and Greece - which typify their own regions traditional strengths.
The teams
Colombia are the groups seeds and will be favourites to advance, while Japan come into the tournament as Asian champions. But such is the nature of this group, it would hardly be a sensation if Côte dIvoire, Greece - or both - ended up making it through.
Japan-Côte dIvoire: The battle between Asia and Africa, the intricacy of the Samurai Blue pitted against the pace and power of Les Elephants, looks sure to provide a real footballing feast when these teams meet in Recife in their opening fixture. A win for either side would also represent a massive step towards the Round of 16.
