The eyes of fans of teams in Groups C and D will be turned on today’s fixtures and in this show we focus on England v Slovenia and Germany v Ghana: a win for any of these teams will guarantee a play-off spot so it’s all to play for. England have been trying to copy France in terms of dismal displays on the pitch and players speaking out about the coach – John Terry you naughty boy. As for Germany, they are a bit Jekyll and Hyde, winning plaudits for their opening win and causing disbelief by being beaten by Serbia. So, all to play for, but what do fans think? We asked four fans their predictions, to describe England and Germany’s campaigns so far and for their highlights this week. Also:
