POR v CRO Preview
Croatia has had an 82% pass completion in the group stages as they have completed their 840 passes out of 1024. They have had an average possession of 44% with eight yellow cards in total till now.
Their top scorer is Ivan Perisic with two goals and one assist in the three games played by him, followed by Kalinic, Modric and Rakitic all with one goal each.
In the three games played they have scored five goals out of the 41 shots they have had on the goal with an accuracy of 36%. They won two games and drew one to finish with seven points in their group; they beat Turkey by 0-1 in their first game and Spain by 2-1 in their last game of the group stage after being 1-0 down; they drew against the Czech Republic by 2-2.
Both teams have met three times before in which Portugal have had the upper hand all the time. Portugal won by 0-1 in a friendly in 2013, then in 2005 Portugal again won by 2-0 and in 1996 Portugal again won by 0-3, and this will be the fourth time these teams meet and by looking at both teams’ form, nothing could be said.
Portugal has had an 89% pass completion in the pool stages as they completed 1461 passes out of 1634. They have had an average possession of 64% in the three matches played till now with four goals in the group stages out of the 52 shots taken with an accuracy of 40%.
But the main issue here is that they haven’t won any matches as they drew all their games and finished third in the group. They need to be at their best if they want to beat Croatia.
