Croatia vs Brazil
-Croatia is a very strong side, and it’s not a mistake that they are in the top 8. They do have a strong side, with individual players that like to share the ball.
– Brazil is a strong squad with talented players and a very knowledgeable coach. The team has depth so even if Croatia had the answers, their plans will not suffice.
-Croatia has quality players and a good starting 11, but I doubt they’ll last for 90 minutes.
Netherlands vs Argentina
– I don’t believe Argentina has met a stronger opponent than the Dutch team in this tournament.
Netherlands were not in the last World Cup, they have individual players that can win them the game. The coach is tactical and experienced too.
-Argentina has the best player in the world and the players are quality too, it’s their defense that concerns me because they have not been properly tested and they lost their game against Saudi Arabia.
France vs England
– France are the defending World Champions that look even stronger, plus their coach understands the players. They have talented players that are relying on one member of their team.
England is superior tactically and will frustrate France, leading to them winning on penalties.
Morocco vs Portugal
-Morocco is good tactically, but they have not been applying themselves since this tournament started. They are fearless, but are lucky to be in their position.
-Portugal is one of the teams in the world with great individual players that have scored the most in the group stages
