CROATIA - RUSSIA


These two are unbeaten in qualification and I expect this to be very close. Croatia never lose at home, but visably tired late in the game at Estonia. This is the last game of a very long season for most of their players and at the end of the day, although they desperately want the win, a point is not a disaster.

Gus Hiddink will no doubt have come up with some tactics to kill the game, his side have only conceded once in 6 starts so far and, as we are only 10 games into their domestic season, most of his squad should be at their peak.

This should be "under" , but I favour the visitors to get something from this and keep their 4,000 travelling supporters happy.

3 points Russia +1/2 ball 1.78
2 points Croatia-Russia draw 3.20 general.


Back Later.
