Wales v Croatia Match Preview

A loss would all but eliminate Wales. They would no longer be able to overhaul Croatia, no matter what results follow for both sides and they would be relying on Turkey losing at home to Latvia to give them any chance of qualification.

A huge spanner was thrown in the works just a day before the squad met up, Marko Livaja announced his retirement from national team duties after last weeks call up.

Livaja caused controversy back in Croatia, with Sibenik fans taking offence to a song sung by the Hajduk Split player. Livaja was then abused at an open training session and walked off following an angry confrontation with fans.

The previous game between these two sides finished 1-1, and with both teams needing a result, goals seem likely. Wales have seen two or more goals in four of their five qualifiers so far, the one exception being a narrow 1-0 win at home to minnows Latvia. The hosts have scored in four of their last five games and have conceded in three of those five. Croatia meanwhile have seen two or more goals in three of their five qualifiers, with two games finishing 1-0. Both of these games should have seen more goals, with Croatia piling up 4.02 xG against Armenia, and there was 3.78 total xG in their game against Turkey on Sunday.

Team News

Youngsters Charlie Savage and Joe Low both made senior debuts on Thursday in Wales’ 4-0 demolition of Gibraltar in Wrexham. Rob Page stated that both will now stay with the senior team and will not join up with the U21s, as was initially expected. Savage notched an assist, whilst injuries have opened up a spot for Low.

Aaron Ramsey is injured, so Ben Davies wore the armband in midweek and that looks likely to continue against Croatia.

Croatia are experiencing something of an injury crisis, with key men such as Andrej Kramaric, Ivan Perisic and Mislav Orsic sidelined.

Bruno Petkovic is a doubt as he returns from injury, though there is a small chance he may feature.

Predicted Lineups

Wales: Ward; Mepham, Rodon, Davies; Roberts, James, Ampadu, N. Williams; Wilson, James; Moore

Croatia: Livakovic; Stanisic, Sutalo, Gvardiol, Sosa; Modric, Brozovic, Kovacic; Vlasic, Petkovic, Brekalo
