Portugal - Uzbekistan

Although Croatia started the championship with a loss, scoring 2 goals and facing a very weak Panama team should improve the mood and conditions for the Croatian team. Ghana does not seem to be in good shape, but Panama was defeated, which shows that Croatia should also be able to beat them. Croatia has experience playing against a team like Panama and knows how to approach such important matches.

I think it's a pretty decent option, which lately seems to be one of the better ones. This Croatian team is getting on in age, but they still have some fight left, especially when the game is controlled by this team. Perhaps losing to top teams doesn't give much hope, but the Croatians have been successful against younger, faster teams, and they have an advantage when playing against a team like Panama. The attack of this team is alive and scoring two goals against the English is a respectable achievement, so in this match between Croatia and Peru, it seems very likely that the Croatians will come out on top, and I believe they will win by a negative goal difference, with Modric leading the team.

In this meeting, Croatia appears to be a much stronger team. Although Panama sometimes manages to create problems for weaker opponents, the difference in quality, experience, and overall level between these teams is quite significant. The Croats have a higher level of individual mastery and better control over the course of the match, and they usually create enough opportunities to score against this type of opponent. Therefore, choosing under 4.5 goals also seems logical. Croatia usually wins by controlling the game, rather than participating in high-scoring goal celebrations.

The Croatians left a good impression in the first half against the English, but in the second half, the English showed their mastery and played a fantastic period. However, the Croatian game is not bad and losing to the English is not inevitable. Now we face Panama, whose level does not seem very high on a European scale, so it is difficult to evaluate, but certain results show that there is a difference in the strength of the teams. They have not yet won against Bolivia, played a tie against Peru, and even allowed 6 goals against Brazil. The group situation is tense and the fight for 3 points will be intense.
