World Cup Prediction Argentina – Croatia

Maybe one of the most anticipated duels in this round 2 of the World Cup is the game between Argentina and Croatia, a match played at 21:00 on the Novgorod stadium. Things are pretty clear for both bands, so the Argentines have to get all three points, while the Croats are also content with a draw in this game that would bring them even closer to the finals. The match will be a pretty tough one, but certainly a South American nation much closer to finishing.
Argentina’s Sampaoli deeply disappointed in the first game played in this World because a country like Iceland managed to pull a point from Messi & Co. The truth has been that a careful preparation of the opponent and an extra motivation can take away any competitor who does not do their homework well. The Argentinians were extremely weak, falling behind the gulf received from the Icelanders. Messi was not at all on his good day, losing even a penalty in the middle of the second half that could have brought him the three points that would have mattered to qualifying. So, at this point in time, you have to practice a five times better football against the Croatian national who is certainly more experienced than Icelandic. Di Maria, Aguero and Messi have to regain their appetite to give supporters the hope they can reach the finals.

Probable team Argentina: Caballero; Mercado, Otamendi, Tagliafico; Salvio, Mascherano, Meza, Acuna; Messi, Aguero, Pavon.
Croatia led by Zlatko Dalic started from perfect in this group with a win against Nigeria World 2-0, goals being scored by Modric and that a Nigerian player after an own goal. Game of the Croatian was not delightful, survinând their luck at opening the scoring after 30 minutes as the time things had created panic among the players, we managed to practice the game that you are prepared. Croatian midfielder showed very well in this game, Modric and Rakitic succeeding in countless passes that led to important goal phases. Even the bands have done their job very well, and with a peak like Mandzukic on a big day you can create serious problems for your opponent. This is what Croatia needs in this game, which is convinced that it can go quite well if it respects the tactical plan prepared by the band’s staff.

Probable team Croatia: Subasic; Vrsaljko, Lovren, Vida, Strinic; Rakitic, Badelj; Brozovic, Modric, Perisic; Mandzukic.

Surely Argentina is the favorite due to its valuable net lot, but the shape of this moment is inclined towards a positive result for the Croats. I think they can not lose to Messi & Co unless they wake up and practice the football that most people have seen practicing at clubs. I believe, however, that things have not worked out so well in so short a time, and that Croatia can get even one point out of this game, and so be close to qualifying in the finals.
