Prediction for the match Croatia vs Belgium at the 2022 World Cup
Rancakmedia.com – In the article below we will discuss predictions Croatia vs Belgium match in the 2022 world cup. This group F match will take place at the Ar Rayyan Stadium, Qatar on Thursday 1 December 2022 at 22.00 WIB will be the determinant for both teams to qualify and not enter the last 16.
It should be noted that the two last 16 tickets from Group F are still being contested by three teams, namely Croatia, Morocco and Belgium. Meanwhile, Canada has been eliminated.
The nickname from Croatia is Vatreni who is in first place in Group F standings with four points. Meanwhile, Morocco is in second place with four points, and Belgium is in third place with three points.
Actually, Croatia only needed a draw with Belgium to qualify for the round of 16. However, it seems that Luka Modric and colleagues will still win the match later.
As for Belgium, they actually have to win to qualify for the round of 16. Because, an additional three points will secure the team's ticket to the next round.
If you look at Belgium's performance in the previous two matches, it is clear that they will have difficulty against Croatia.
So is that a sign that the golden stick generation nicknamed The Red Devils will end?

After playing against Morocco in the first match, Croatia then achieved positive results on the second matchday. The 2018 world cup runner-up beat Canada 4-1.
Croatia managed to extend their chance to survive in this edition of the tournament. As for Canada, it is certain that they will lift their luggage because they have not yet won points, after losing 2 times.
In that match, Croatia was surprised by Canada, who took the lead quickly through the actions of Alphonso Davies (2').
However, The Blazer can turn things around. Andrej Kramaric's brace (30' & 70') then goals by Marko Livaja (44') and Lovro Majer (90+4), sealed victory for Croatia.
Croatia's hope of qualifying for the round of 16 remains open. In fact, mathematically, they only need a draw on matchday 3, if they want to determine a qualifying ticket.
However, this target was not enough to make Croatia the group winner. If you want to end the group phase in first place, Croatia at least needs to win the game against Belgium with a big score.
This can help The Blazer compete with Morocco, which currently also collects 4 points, but loses on goal difference.
“The final round will decide everything. We haven't finished anything, we have to chase victory against Belgium, a team that needs 3 points like us," said Zlatko Dalic, Croatia coach.
Croatia can also experience the worst possibility if they lose to Belgium. A defeat could cause The Blazer's position to drop to rank 3.
Especially if in another match Morocco was able to win over Canada, on the other hand, compared to Croatia, Belgium's fate is on the edge.
The only way for The Red Devils to advance to the round of 16 is to win in the closing match of the group phase.
A draw is clearly not enough to push Belgium into the top 2 positions in Group F. Meanwhile, defeat will automatically knock Kevin De Bruyne and Kolage out of the 2022 world cup.
What Belgium is currently experiencing cannot be separated from their failure to pick up points on matchday 2. Facing Morocco, Roberto Martinez's squad actually lost 2 goals without limits.
As a result, Belgium is now stuck in 3rd place in Group F with 3 points or 1 point behind Croatia and Morocco.
Croatia vs Belgium line-up prediction
The Croatian national team is expected to play in a 4-3-3 formation. The Blazer's midfield can be strengthened by a number of experienced midfielders, such as: Brozovic, Kovacic and Modric.

On the opposite side, Belgium is predicted to install a 3-4-2-1 scheme. The Red Devils' central sector will stand in the presence of Kevin De Bruyne.
The midfielder who owns Manchester City has partnered with Eden Hazard to support Michy Batshuayi who is believed to be the lone striker.
