FIFA Ranking: Probable top 50 in August 2008

Point totals for teams in blue should be 100% correct. For the others, there's the issue of historical rankings published before July 2006.

Matches scheduled this month will not affect the top 50. The ranking will suffer some changes due to devaluations of results - Copa America 2007, WC 2006, Gold Cup 2005, Copa America 2004, EURO 2004.
