Most intriguing matchup in the Round of 16?

To me, the game I want to watch the most (outside of US-Bel, of course) is the Mexico- Netherlands match up on Sunday.
It is put up or shut up time for Mexico. The Dutch team is elite and to be the best, MEX will have to beat the best.
What match-up is most intriguing to you?

It's Brazil/Chile by far for me. Can't wait to tune in for that.

Yeah Brazil/Chile is my 2nd choice. Love that it's just around the corner as well.

Argentina/Switzerland for me. Besides being on the U.S. side of the bracket, the game seems like it could be an entertaining contrast in styles.
Messi has been dynamite, but the rest of Argentina has looked average. I think they are vulnerable and the Swiss have a real shot. I also think Messi is locked in, and if the game is tied late, he may go beastmode to solidy his legacy. Anxious to watch how he establishes himself in the knockout games.

Both of those matches could be balls to the wall attacking. Although I suspect Brazil will actually be a bit more pragmatic in that matchup than their reputation suggests.

I agree with Holland v Mexico

Fwiw, the last time Argentina played Switzerland Messi scored a hat trick.

Brazil is going to be playing with clenched cheeks from here on out.
Could easily see Chile beating them. They won't hold Chile scoreless IMO.
IMO Mexico has a good chance to beat NED with the way Mexico is playing right now.
Their technical ability is annoying.

It still amazes me that the best Brazil can roll out up top in this tournament is Fred. 
Sanchez vs Silva/Luiz should be highly entertaining.

Brazil Chile for sure. Real chance that Brazil gets done in in round 1. Outsside of pounding Cameroon they haven't done much.

The 3 mentioned to this point are the correct answers. I must say though, i feel the USA will put it all together and pace/styles should be fun match with belgium. Think belgium is over due for a better showing--will be interesting to see if we can keep them down

Holland-Mexico
Two of the teams that have performed the best in the tournament; Chicharito off the bench; Wet Herrera; RVP vs Marquez; Memphis Depay has been terrific at a young age; Ochoa in goal; van Gaal.

Is it just me, or is one half of the bracket way stronger than the other?
The bracket with Brazil, Colombia, France and Germany looks much stronger than the opposite one...luckily for us!
