Argentina vs. Croatia Prediction & Best Bet
As Devon Platana writes at TheDuel:
Argentina and Croatia have met four times in history, each winning two matches apiece. Having said that, it was the Croatians who were victorious in a big way during the last meeting, picking up a 3-0 victory against the Argentinians in a group stage game at the 2018 World Cup.
Though Croatia has played well this year, Argentina is playing for too much to be denied. Not only is the country looking for revenge for the 2018 loss, but Argentina is also trying to win this for Lionel Messi as this could be his final World Cup. Sometimes, motivation like that is all that’s needed to get the job done.
Back Argentina winning this one in a close-fought match.
CROATIA VS. ARGENTINA FINAL SCORE PREDICTION: ARG 2, CRO 1
