FIFA Ranking: June 2009 preview

Point totals for teams from the top 20 of the October 2007 ranking should be 100% correct. For the others, there's the issue of historical rankings published before July 2006.

Only 11 matches (all friendlies) will be played before the official May 28th deadline. However, FIFA may include up to 21, as 10 more matches will be played before the not so official May 31st deadline.

This table is based on the official deadline.

FCM Caracal si Tricolorul Breaza - castigatoare ale barajelor datorita mediei puncte/meci superioare.

Am ales varianta de compromis care mi se pare cea mai probabila: Tricolorul Breaza si Dunarea Giurgiu in Seria a II-a.

In zona de granita Est/Vest sunt urmatoarele echipe:

CSM Ploiesti (Prahova)
Petrolul Ploiesti (Prahova)
Concordia Chiajna (Ilfov)
Dunarea Giurgiu (Giurgiu)
CS Buftea (Ilfov)
Tricolorul Breaza (Prahova)
Dacia Mioveni (Arges)
International Curtea de Arges (Arges)

4 vor merge in Seria I, 4 in Seria a II-a.

Pare putin probabil sa vedem echipe din Ilfov sau Ploiesti in seria de vest.

FIFA Ranking: May 2009 final preview

Point totals for teams from the top 20 of the October 2007 ranking should be 100% correct. For the others, there's the issue of historical rankings published before July 2006.

FIFA will publish the May 2009 ranking on May 6th. The deadline for matches is tomorrow, this means there are two more matches left: Myanmar - Cambodia and Bangladesh - Macau. Both are played in the AFC Challenge Cup preliminary competition and are considered friendlies for ranking purposes.

This is how their point totals could change:

Myanmar (W: 129; D: 125; L: 123)
Cambodia (W: 69; D: 63; L: 60)
Bangladesh (W: 70; D: 62; L: 57)
Macau (W: 39; D: 31; L: 27)

Little movement in the top 50 with Poland and Hungary moving up one place at the expense of Costa Rica and Colombia.

Best movers:

12 - Sierra Leone and Chinese Taipei
10 - Pakistan
9 - Maldives and Mongolia

Worst movers:

-9 - Lebanon
-5 - Seychelles and Bhutan
-4 - Angola, Philippines, Nepal, Belize, Brunei Darussalam

Grenada will have their best ever raking - 103rd. Their previous best ranking was 105th in August 1997.

Two countries will have their worst ever ranking:

Lebanon (159th - 151st in October 2008)
Andorra (196th - 195th in January 2009)
