2006 FIFA WORLD CUP DAY 4 PREVIEW

group f - australia vs japan

group e - usa vs czech republic

group e - italy vs ghana

The whole of australia will be watching as Australia plays it's first World Cup game in 32 years. It will no doubt be a tough test for the Socceroos but this time is ready for anything under the guidance of super coach Guus Hiddink.

USA will play there first Group E match against World Number 2 side Czech Republic. Should be a good match but on paper the Czech Republic looks to strong.

Italy vs Ghana is the other Group E match and the first timers will be looking to cause a major upset against one of the World Cup favourites in Italy.
