There is are only one aspect of note in this chart, a square from the Moon to the antiscion of Pluto (at 25 Scorpio 11). Other than this aspect, the Moon is void of course (she makes no other aspects whilst in her current sign).
In contest charts, a void of course Moon often indicates a draw, which is not possible in this knockout stage of the tournament. It can also suggest a lack of surprises: The favourites win as expected.
Pluto has been observed to have a grudge against the favourites, but a lunar square to the antiscion of Pluto is a minor testimony which is might limit his malice.
The odds are close, the match will be closer.
At the time of writing, the pundits favour Egypt for the win, which seems the most likely result, unless Pluto decides to step in as Australia’s 12th player.
*Please Note: The aim will be to post one forecast for each day of the tournament, in advance of the match start time. All charts will be cast for BST (British Summer Time, which is 1 hour ahead of GMT/UST). Due to local time differences, the date of the contest chart may vary from the local match date. Forecasts are for astrological information and educational purposes only. Charts are set for the scheduled kickoff time. As forecasts are published ahead of the event, there is a possibility that the chart may change if the start of the match is delayed, making the published forecast invalid. In accordance with John Frawley’s system for judging contest charts, the favourites will be chosen on the basis of the bookmaker’s odds in advance of the match
