World Cup: All four teams fancy their chances in Group C

With the likes of Yaya Toure (Manchester City), Gervinho (AS Roma), Didier Drogba (Galatasaray), Kolo Toure (Liverpool) and Wilfried Bony (Swansea City) amongst others in the team, it would be foolish to take them lightly.

Ivory Coast have the necessary firepower to even top the group and cause some big upsets in the knockout stages.

However, the seriousness and commitment of some of the players to national duty has been a cause for concern for the 'Les Elephants'.

They have always gone into tournaments with a big reputation but have failed to live up to their billing.

Ivory Coast have never progressed past the group stage but in their third consecutive World Cup finals, they would want to correct the record.

Greece, the 2004 Euro champions, breezed through the opening qualification campaign. They ousted Romania in the play-offs to make it to the finals.

However, the lack of star names in the side means that it could be a difficult journey for the Greeks.

Captain and seasoned midfield general Giorgos Karagounis remains the dominant figure in the Greek line-up but forwards Dimitrios Salpingidis and Konstantinos Mitroglou will certainly have a part to play.

The Grecian defence stole the show in the qualifying, conceding just four times in 10 matches. However, against the likes of Falcao, Drogba and Honda, it could be a different story altogether.
