CRO vs CAN Match Preview
Though Croatia ended their five-match winning streak with a goalless draw against Morocco in their tournament opener, they are still seven-match unbeaten (5 wins and 2 draws). Moreover, out of their last 17 games, the Blazers lost only once (0-3 vs Austria). Now, the WC 2018 runners-up are desperate to win this forthcoming game.
Canada are struggling to perform consistently this year. In their opening game of this World Cup, they suffered a frustrating 1-0 defeat to Belgium, where Alphonso Davies also failed to score from a penalty as the Belgium goalie Thibaut Courtois saved it. Their upcoming World Cup match is the must-win game for Les Rouges to remain on the positive side in this competition.
In the meantime, it will be the first official meeting between Croatia and Canada.
