Croatia, the 2018 World Cup finalists, will be hoping this time they can go all the way and win the coveted title. So far, they are doing well in the qualifiers and look primed to book an automatic slot from Group H. They are currently in the lead in this group with 13 points and will be looking to add three more when they travel to bottom placed Cyprus who are on four points. Cyprus go to this game having lost all their last five matches, and having also failed to score in eight of their last 10 matches. They have three goals in the last 10 games, and managed just two clean sheets while in their last four matches, Cyprus have conceded two or more goals in each. In World Cup qualifiers, they have three straight losses and in Group H they have four losses in the six games played. They have conceded two or more goals in the last three World Cup qualification matches and failed to score in the same run.

Croatia on the other hand, have two straight wins going to this game and three straight clean sheets. In their last match, they trounced Slovenia 3-0, making it three games in five that they’ve managed to score three times. The visitors go to this game unbeaten in their last five World Cup qualification matches, winning four, and keeping five clean sheets while failing to score in just one. In their first meetings with Cyprus in this group, Croatia won 1-0 and they will be confident heading here, having beaten Cyprus in both matches they’ve faced off. In their last five away matches in World Cup qualifiers, Croatia have kept four clean sheets.
