Croatia – Greece betting preview and advices
One of the most interesting confrontations of this Qualification Play-Off Round will held in Zagreb, because, frankly speaking, the Swiss should pass the Northern Irish without any effort, the Italians are unlikely to experience serious difficulties with the Swedes, and the Danes are obliged to easily deal with the Irish. Yes, this meeting also has a clear favourite, but still Croatia and Greece looks unpredictable pair as both teams are about the same in quality. Nobody will argue that the Fiery Ones look much stronger and they have a lot of stars in their squad, while the Greek national team can not boast of such level players, but Hellas always knew how to surprise much stronger competitor. Probably, no one has forgotten Euro 2004 triumph, so do not underestimate this team. The group stage can not say much about the guests` strength, because the Greeks did not have the truly solid rivals, except Belgium. However, Michael Skibbe`s men managed to play a draw in Brussels, and the star Belgians were able to level the score only in the 89th minute, moreover, the Greeks ended that game while two their players were sent off. Yes, they have lost return match at home, but still managed to score again and it is already quite a lot!

Despite the really impressive starting XI, the Fiery Ones do not look invincible and may well allow a misfire today. Croatia played unconvincingly in the group stage – they lost to Iceland, failed to beat Turkey at home and lost to them on the road, even a small Finland managed to take one point in Zagreb. The hosts have serious difficulties in the attack, only in 3 of 10 qualification games they managed to score more than one goal, and we all know that the Greeks are great specialists in defensive football and know how to score a goal, having only one counterattack during 90 minutes. Most likely, Croatia will win today, but only via one-goal margin.
