Croatia vs Canada. Prediction and Betting Tips for 2022 FIFA World Cup

Croatia national team was the runner-up of the previous World Cup. Four years ago, the team lost to France in the final in Moscow. In the qualification for the 2022 World Cup, Zlatko Dalić's team managed to finished on top of Russia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Cyprus, and Malta.

In the first game in Qatar, Croatia didn't show their best performance. In the first half, the Checkered Ones were active on offense and tried hard to collect three points, but halftime, Croatia sat back on the defensive. Eventually, Morocco held them to a goalless draw. Croatia are currently in 2nd place in Group F.

Canada national team definitely surprised most football fans by finishing in first place in the North American qualification with the best attacking and defensive record. They beat Mexico and the USA, who usually are strong favourites in the CONCACAF qualification. 

John Herdman's team has such powerful opponents as Belgium, Croatia, and Morocco, who are unlikely to give Canada a chance. But it is too early to call the Noth Americans outsiders - they looked good against Belgium and acted boldly on offense. However, they failed to score a penalty and suffered a narrow defeat (0:1).
