COPENHAGEN, Denmark, June 11, 2014 /PRNewswire/ --

Data from 50,000 football tipsters on bettingexpert.com predicts England will reach the quarter-finals at the World Cup. 

England will make it through the Group Stages during this World Cup, but are likely to come a cropper against Brazil in the quarter-finals, according to one of the world's biggest network of betting experts.

Using data from more than 50,000 betting predictions, bettingexpert.com estimates that Italy will win Group D, with England narrowly pipping Uruguay to second place. England is then predicted to overcome Columbia in the Round of 16, before succumbing to red-hot favourites Brazil in the Quarter Finals.

The results have been taken from bettingexpert's World Cup Predictor competition, which provides tipsters the opportunity to win over £8,000 (€10,000) if they can correctly predict the outcome of Brazil 2014, with secondary prizes of £800 and £400. So far over 50,000 betting experts from across the globe have entered. The competition is still open at http://www.bettingexpert.com/world-cup/predictor

Over 35% of football predictions have said that Brazil will win the World Cup, with Germany second choice at 21%. They are followed by Spain and Argentina, who are both favoured by around 12% of the community's football betting tips. Some betting experts still believe that England are in with a chance though, as 3.22% have said they will win the tournament.

Marc Pedersen, Head of Sales at bettingexpert developer Better Collective, commented: "Group D is the tightest group at the World Cup according to our betting experts, but more of them fancy England's chances than Uruguay's to progress to the knock-out stages. To lose to Brazil in the quarter finals would be no disgrace, especially on their home patch."
