Prediction
1 (Promoted) - South Korea
2 - Spain
3 - Belgium
4 - Serbia
5 - Australia
6 (Relegated) - Belgium
South Korea was barely relegated last year, as they did tie for fifth but didn't hold the tiebreaker. It's easy to see them go back up to Group A. The host Spain always seem to be close, but unable to get over the hump, and it looked to be much of the same here. The middle is likely to stay the same. An improving Serbia finishing third again might not be the surprise it was last year. Belgium again finds a way to finish fourth again. Australia was abysmal last year, and I can see much of the same for them. The newly promoted Belgians aren't expected to hang around for long, and will finish last, resulting in going back to Division III.
