FIFA Ranking: Probable top 50 in July 2008

With only 2 matches left here's the probable top 50 of the July 2008 FIFA Rankings. Point totals for teams in blue should be 100% correct. For the others, there's the issue of historical rankings published before July 2006.

Gabon - Lesotho won't affect the top 50.
Then there's Germany - Spain. Germany will take over the top spot with a non-PSO win. A Spain win will see Germany drop to 3rd place.
