Two points split the top four teams in this group with two games to go. Croatia are top of the table on goal difference from Iceland with Turkey and Ukraine third and fourth two points behind. Croatia have a plus 9 goal difference with the other three teams all on plus 4 and that could prove vital though Iceland will be looking to close that gap as they host Kosovo in their final game. After this home game against Finland, Croatia travel to Ukraine for their final game. Croatia have won three and drawn one of their home games in this group conceding just once against Turkey and have only lost two of their last 13 home qualifiers. The reverse fixture between these two sides saw Croatia win 1-0 but eight game in this group have only seen Croatia score 12 goals and six of those came in the away win against Kosovo. Finland are fifth in the group with seven points earned from wins against Kosovo and Iceland and a home draw with Kosovo. They won't be a walkover for Croatia with just one loss in their last five games but have only won two of their last 13 games. Croatia have home advantage and know they need a win before that final awkward trip to Ukraine, go for them to win on a -1 handicap.
