A mob of meerkats with a track record of predicting the future has revealed to keepers England will win against France in the World Cup quarterfinal tomorrow (Sat).

The meerkats at Drusillas Park, Sussex, predicted the England win over Senegal last week, by choosing the St. George's Cross over the flag of the West African nation.

And yesterday (8) they were presented with buckets of food - one covered in the England flag, and one displaying France's tricolor.

The small mammals unanimously gathered around the England bucket, anticipating a win for the Three Lions tomorrow (10).

Zoo keeper Jacinta Dawe said: “Our team love getting into the spirit of the World Cup and so it’s been great to get behind the squad and show our support.

"Although we wish both teams luck on Saturday - it would be amazing for England to win as the meerkats have predicted!"
