Croatia vs Morocco Prediction & Betting tips
On Saturday from 15:00, Croatia and Morocco will face each other in the small final for the 3rd place at the World Championship in Qatar. It will be the second direct confrontation between the two teams, after they also faced each other in groups where a tie was recorded, score 0-0 and both qualified further, Morocco in first place and Croatia in in second place. If Morocco prevails, it will be the first African team to take the podium at a final tournament.
Croatia:
Croatia was close to playing the second consecutive final of the World Championship after four years ago it managed to do so, but lost the final against France with a score of 4-2. Croatia did not play extraordinary in this final tournament, having only one victory in the groups, 4-1 against Canada, in the other two games recording two draws without goals, 0-0 with Belgium and 0-0 with Morocco. In the eighths and quarters, Croatia needed shots from 11m to pass Japan and Brazil respectively. In the semifinals, however, Croatia came across Argentina, who took revenge after the 2018 group defeat with 3-0.
Morocco:
On the other hand, Morocco is the surprise of this final tournament in Qatar 2022, managing to become the first African national team to qualify for the semi-finals and has the chance to write history once again if it wins today and ranks 3rd. Morocco won the group with Croatia, today’s opponent, Belgium and Canada, after which the huge surprises followed in the eighth when they beat Spain in the kicks from 11m and with Portugal when they won 1-0. However, the miracle stopped in the semifinals, where although Morocco did not play badly at all, it was defeated by France 2-0.
