 FIFA World Cup 2022 Japan vs Croatia prediction live-streaming

The World Cup's surprise darkhorses Japan will strive to create further history, but Croatia’s golden generation stand in their way.

After taking down two former champions, giant killers Japan will be eager to pull off another stunning scalp at the tournament when they face Croatia in Monday's round of 16 clash at the Al Janoub Stadium. Croatia’s experienced stars will have other plans as they look to make sure they have their say in proceedings.

Having been drawn into this year's so-called "Group of Death" alongside historical powerhouses Germany and Spain, not many people saw Japan making it to the knockout rounds.

However, Hajime Moriyasu's second-half specialists didn't only manage to do just that, but better it by topping the group, beating both of the giants in the process despite trailing at half time in both games.
