While I was posting my predictions, it did seem to me that I was coming up against the same pairings more than once, but it wasn't until I submitted them that I saw that that was indeed the case. I copied the pairings from the first post in this thread - hope that is right. I will include my predictions again, this time with the match numbers, for the avoidance of doubt. (I am not changing any of the predictions from those above.) I have noticed that I seem to be predicting different possible results for the same pairings, depending on in which match they meet! Never mind!

Indeed. It confused me at first.

The reason is that one match is Winner A v. Runner-up E. and the other is Winner E v. Runner-up A, etc.

So, where the winner/runner-up in both groups are not known, they could indeed meet each other in one of two places!
