2010 World Cup seeding: Portugal or France? (III)

There's a mistake in my previous Portugal vs. France post:

"there will be 5 teams between France and Portugal: Russia, Argentina, England, Greece and Croatia." Croatia can no longer qualify, so it can't affect the seeding.

Beside Portugal and France, five teams (Argentina, England, Germany, Greece and Russia) could affect the ranking part of seeding formula by being ranked between those two teams in November.

These are the November matches for the teams involved:

Argentina: Spain (in Madrid) on the 14th and Nigeria (in London) on the 18th.
England: Brazil (in Doha) on the 14th.
France: playoff against the Republic of Ireland
Germany: Chile (in Cologne) on the 14th and Côte d'Ivoire (in Gelsenkirchen) on the 18th.
Greece: playoff against Ukraine.
Portugal: playoff against Bosnia-Herzegovina.
Russia: playoff against Slovenia.

Since it's a pretty wide table, I split it in 3 parts.

L - loss, D - draw, W - win, PL - PSO loss, PW - PSO win.

Now it's up to Voros to compute Portugal's chances for a seed.
