Brazil will win the world cup for these simple reasons, Emerson (best defensive midfielder in the world along with Viera), Kaka (one of the greatest play makers and goal scoring midfielders in the world), Robinho (potentially one of the greatest second strikers in the world), Ronaldinho (without a doubt the greatest player in the world), Adriano (the biggest most powerful and one of the greatest strikers in the world) and of course Ronaldo who even now , despite being a fat bastard, will no doubt score at least 5 goals in the tournament and is still one of the greatest strikers in the world. No other country has a midfield and attack like that and yes their defence is not as bad as made out. Cafu (i think hes injured for the world cup? but if so Cicinho is not half bad!), Lucio is immense, Roberto Carlos can do a job and Luisao isnt bad either! if Brazil need a goal to win a game one of their attacking players can create one out of nothing. Remember Ronaldinho's free kick against England? i forgot Juninho from Lyon he is also superb! Brazil are naturally confident and know what it takes to win.
