Croatia, as expected, is in the intermediate second place in the group after four rounds, behind Portugal. The difference between the rivals is three points. The only defeat the "checkers" suffered was at the start from the Portuguese (1:2). Later there were victories over Poland (1:0) and Scotland (2:1) and a bright draw 3:3 in the return match with the Poles.

Among the young promising players, we note Martin Baturin, who scored a goal in the previous match.

The Scots have the home field factor on their side, which is important for them, and great motivation. The Croatians have a more solid selection of players, but at the same time there are noticeable losses in the squad. Scotland drew with Portugal in the last round, demonstrating that they should not be underestimated. It is quite possible that the "tartan army" will not be left without points today due to the high dedication and support of the local crowd.
