Both these teams come into the World Cup proper having qualified top of their respective groups in Africa and Europe. Morocco had to face DR Congo in a two legged play-off and had no problems dispatching them 5-2 on Aggregate. They had a fairly disappointing AFCON tournament, losing 2-1 to Egypt in the Quarter Finals and will be unlikely to match their best ever performance at a World Cup, back in 1986 when they reached the round of 16 stage.
Croatia topped Group H which included Russia, Slovakia and Slovenia and looked impressive in doing so, conceding just four goals and scoring 21. Of course Croatia had a stunning World Cup back in 2018, beating England in the semis, before losing to France in the Final. It seems unlikely they will repeat that this time but under captain Luka Modric anything in possible.
The two teams have only met once previously, in a 2-2 draw back in 1996.
