Croatia and Canada meet at the Khalifa International Stadium with both sides searching for their first win and goals in the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar. Croatia only managed a goalless draw against Morocco while Canada missed a penalty during their 1-0 defeat to Belgium.
Unsurprisingly, Croatia are the favourites here at 23/20 with Betfred but what is surprising is Canada is 5/2 - highlighting the bookies preparing for a potential upset in this tie - and a draw is 12/5. Croatia have faced CONCACAF side on three occasions at the World Cup beating Jamaica in 1998 before losing to Mexico in 2002 and 2014.
Despite Croatia's impressive Nations League campaign, not many have tipped the 2018 finalists for a repeat of their form from Russia in Qatar this time around. They definitely were relieved in their draw against Morocco who were the better side throughout the match and had the better chances.
