Argentina vs Croatia | Argentina Asian Handicap – 0.75 @ 2.40 |
| June 22, 02:00 (GMT+8) |
Judging by their opening game against Iceland, it’s fair to say the Argentina class of 2018 do not look like potential world champions.
Even if the reaction to Lionel Messi’s failure to score from 12 yards against Iceland was somewhat over the top, there was no hiding the South Americans seem to be struggling.
In contrast, Croatia eased to victory over Nigeria and have their own strength from four-time Champions League winner Luka Modric to Barcelona’s Ivan Rakitic and Juventus frontman Mario Mandzukic.
However, I just think Messi, Sergio Aguero and Co. will have enough to edge this. They can’t afford not to in Novgorod and I think they will prevail—just.

Brazil vs Costa Rica | Brazil Asian Handicap -2.00 @ 2.16 |
| June 22, 20:00 (GMT+8) |
The road to redemption for Brazil has not started well.
Four years on, their 7-1 humiliation on home soil by Germany will not be overcome unless they reach the final of a World Cup. Unfortunately, a 1-1 draw with Switzerland was a frustrating beginning.
However, their scratchy performance is not something which should be repeated in Saint Petersburg against a Costa Rican side which has a big ask to match their efforts of four years ago when they reached the quarter-finals.
In their opening defeat to Serbia, they lacked both defensive organisation and the clinical counter-attacks which so lit up Brazil 2014.
Even if Neymar, who limped out of training this week, is absent, Brazil should get their much-needed win with something to spare.

Serbia vs Switzerland | Total Goal 2-3 @ 1.94 |
| June 23, 02:00 (GMT+8) |
There’s no doubt some weight was lifted off the shoulders of Serbia coach Mladen Krstajic when they saw off Costa Rica in what was his first competitive game in charge.
That Serbia found it hard to break down the central Americans ultimately didn’t matter as they dominated possession and never looked in trouble.
Switzerland grew in confidence as their 1-1 draw with Brazil went on, and they will rightly feel another draw in this one will put them in a strong position to reach the last 16.
I don’t expect many goals in Kaliningrad, but I expect a few.
