Four years ago at the World Championships in Russia Brazil took first place in the group. In the 1/8 finals, the South American team coped with Mexico 2:0, following which they lost to Belgium 1:2.
The yellow-greens easily overcame the group stage of the current world forum, finishing first with six points in their assets. In the opening two games, they calmly beat Serbia 2:0 and Switzerland 1:0, and in the final round they played with an experimental squad and lost 0:1 to Cameroon.

Forecast and rate
In the upcoming match bookmakers give preference to nominal guests: the victory of Brazil – 1.37Croatian victory – 9.60draw – 5.00.
Passage: Brazil – 1.16; Croatia – 5.70.
The ease with which the Brazilians played in the 1/8 finals, and how effectively they passed the defense of the Koreans, suggests that the Croats have little chance.
“Checkers” will do their best to hold back a formidable opponent, but they are unlikely to be able to keep up the pace of the South Americans throughout the match. In general, the Europeans will get a couple of holes and lose even in regular time – this is the general forecast to the game.
