Croatia vs Spain: the recent form of both teams

Croatia got their Group D campaign off to the worst possible start with a 1-0 defeat to England. The Blazers were then held to a 1-1 draw by the Czech Republic. Although it left them in a difficult spot ahead of their clash with Scotland, they came back strong with a 3-1 win to finish as runners-up in Group D.

On the other hand, Spain finished their first two games without a win and suffered a very undeserving draw. A 5-1 dominant display against Slovakia saw them climb to the 2nd spot behind Sweden in Group E. Spain aims to win a fourth European Championship, which would make them the most successful team in the tournament's history.

Croatia:

Croatia will look to stick with a similar xi from their 3-1 win against Scotland. Luka Modric, Marcelo Brozovic and Mateo Kovacic could again be lining up as the midfield three in a 4-3-3 formation. However, Perisic has tested positive for Coronavirus and will be unavailable for the round of 16 clashes.

Croatia possible starting lineup:

Livakovic; Vrsaljko, Lovren, Vida, Gvardiol; Modric, Brozovic, Kovacic; Vlasic, Petkovic, Rebic

Spain:

The ever-dependable Barcelona midfielder Sergio Busquets is back in full training and available for selection. Cesar Azpilicueta could keep out Marcos Llorente to feature at right-back once again. However, there might be a change in the back four, with Pau Torres potentially replacing Eric Garcia to start alongside Laporte. Despite not having the best of times with the national team, Morata and Moreno could once again be given the nod in attack.

Spain possible starting lineup:

Simon; Azpilicueta, Laporte, Torres, Alba; Pedri, Busquets, Koke; Sarabia, Morata, G Moreno
