Kashef, our artificial intelligence (AI) robot, has been crunching the numbers to predict the results of each game, all the way to the final. For today's second match – between Brazil and South Korea – Kashef has analysed more than 200 metrics including the number of wins, goals scored, FIFA rankings and more, from matches played over the past century. Prediction: Brazil and South Korea have played one another on seven previous occasions. The South Americans lost only once before, in 1999. Kashef predicts a three-in-four chance that the five-time champions Brazil will win and take on Croatia in the quarter-finals on December 10.
