Japan vs Croatia Preview

In their first meeting since the 2006 World Cup, there is plenty on the line for Japan and Croatia in this Round of 16 clash.

Few would have expected the Samurai Blue to advance from a group that included Spain and Germany, but they defeated both European powerhouses to finish on six points.

Croatia is yet to lose in the tournament playing out scoreless draws with Morocco and Belgium either side of a convincing win over Canada.

It feels like Croatia are yet to reach top gear and have been playing themselves into form ahead of the knockout stages.

As for Japan there is a real concern that they are not playing to their strengths, limiting their attacking talent to play a bit more conservatively and that is a bad idea against the Croatians.
