Uruguay v Holland

Both teams know they both have at least two games left in the tournament but no-one ever remembers who played in the 3rd/4th place play-off, all people care about is the final and both teams will feel they are favourites to go through.
The bookies may favour Holland but Uruguay will think they are destined to win the World Cup, they should have been knocked out in the last round but a 120th missed penalty for Ghana meant the dreaded penalty shoot-out which they won in clinical fashion.
Uruguay have striker Luis Suarez banned for this match and although Diego Forlan has been getting the goals Suarez's presence on the pitch has unnerved defences all over the world so his absence may cost Uruguay.
Holland have never won the World Cup and this will be their best chance yet to win it.  They have been in outstanding form all tournament and have Wesley Sneider in red hot form so although Uruguay will make a match of it I can see Holland nicking this by one goal.
