World Cup Quarter-Final Match-Up Between Brazil and Croatia in 2022: Comparative History and Previous World Cup Clashes Record

Brazil and Croatia will face off in the quarter-finals of the FIFA World Cup on Friday, a match that promises to be an exciting encounter between two football powerhouses.

The highly-anticipated match will be broadcast on the Sports18 channel and can also be streamed live on the Jio Cinema app. The game is scheduled to start at 8:30 pm IST.

Brazil, one of the pre-tournament favourites, has a history of success against Croatia. In their four meetings so far, Brazil has won three matches and drawn one. The last time these two teams met was in the group stages of the 2014 World Cup, with Brazil emerging victorious 3-1.

Brazil's line-up for the quarter-final is somewhat depleted, with key players unavailable due to injury. However, the team is determined to reach the semi-finals of the FIFA World Cup for the second time since their victory in 2002.

Croatia, the runners-up of the last edition, are looking to continue their emotional run in big events. The team depends on the greatness of Luka Modric and the skills of key players Ivan Perisic and Mateo Kovacic.

In the 2006 World Cup, Kaka scored a goal to help Brazil overcome Croatia. This will be the third World Cup meeting between these two teams, with the first encounter taking place in the group stages of the 2006 event.

Interestingly, Brazil has never lost a match against Croatia in any World Cup. The team that has most frequently been victorious over Croatia in past FIFA World Cup matches is, you guessed it, Brazil. Brazil eliminated Croatia in the quarterfinals in both the 2018 and 2022 World Cups.

As the clock ticks closer to the match, both teams are gearing up for what promises to be an unforgettable battle on the football field. Fans of both teams are eagerly waiting for the match, hoping to witness a thrilling display of skill and strategy.

Whether you're a football enthusiast or a casual viewer, the Brazil vs Croatia quarter-final match is one not to be missed. Tune in to Sports18 or stream it live on the Jio Cinema app to catch all the action.
