Group D sees Germany, always involved at the business-end of the World Cup, joined by Serbia, Australia and Ghaha. A wide open group, with all teams involved having a genuine chance of progressing to the knockout stage, this is sure to be fiercely contested.
Despite missing Michael Ballack, Germany will start as group favourites, but are by no means certain to steamroller the opposition. We profile evey team and weigh up their chances of making an impact, reporting on expectations from each country.
