Brazil to Qualify
Most of the predictions go to Brazil’s side as they are a clear contender for the title however, Croatia is playing amazing team football and is organized. Even if they survive the first 90 minutes, we expect Brazil to grab the qualification ticket.
Croatia:
Croatia’s midfield line is the most crucial part of the team as the three players perform at higher levels in their local leagues and have many years of experience in how to rotate and hold the ball. Luka Modric, former Ballon D’or winner is helping his national team one more time to reach the quarter-finals of the World Cup 2022 after he did so in 2018 when they played France in the final game. Former Finalists are ready to fight against one of the strongest contenders.
Brazil:
On the other hand, Brazil, who is a clear favorite to win the World Cup was dancing and having a very comfortable game against South Korea who got the qualification ticket after beating Portugal. Brazil has been performing amazingly in this year’s World Cup having an amazing frontline and a second high-level team on the bench. In their last game, they scored 4 goals as they are eager to grab another win against Croatia and go straight to the semi-finals.
