Croatia will battle it out with Brazil in the quarter-finals of the World Cup at the Education City Stadium on Friday.

Croatia barely made it to this round as they dragged it on with japan to a penalty shoot-out in which they came out on top. This lucky break however might not be the case as they face an impressive Brazilian side who are in a very fine goal-scoring form at the moment. In their last 5 games, Croatia have been very inconsistent with their performances. They have struggled to score goals in this competition and that will be a major cause for concern going into this game.

Brazil on the other hand will come into this game as one of the favorites to win this competition. They come into this game on the back of a 4-1 thrashing over South Korea and will be looking to build on that momentum. In their last 5 games, brazil have come out with 4 victories, an impressive run of performances that they will be looking to extend going into this game. In that time period, they have scored a whooping total of 13 goals, showing their attacking prowess while conceding only 3 goals, showing how strong they are defensively.

Looking at the records have shown that Brazil have the upper hand in this fixture. They have a 100% unbeaten record over Croatia and they will be looking to extend that. Of their past 4 meetings together, Brazil have picked up three wins. The last time these sides met also ended in favour of the Brazilians and they will be hoping for a repeat of that result. The Brazilian team are star studded with technically gifted players and talents that have continued to make their mark in this competition. They have been solid defensively and on the attack, they have also been ruthless. Croatia on the other hand have struggled to make it through in this competition and we expect them to have a very difficult game against this brilliant Brazilian side. We are backing Brazil to secure a dominating victory by the end of this game.

克罗地亚将于周五在教育城体育场举行的世界杯四分之一决赛中与巴西决一雌雄。

克罗地亚队勉强进入这轮比赛，他们与日本队进行了点球大战，最终获得冠军。然而，这种幸运的突破可能并不是这样，因为他们面对的是一支令人印象深刻的巴西队，他们目前正处于一个非常好的进球状态。在过去的5场比赛中，克罗地亚的表现非常不稳定。他们在这场比赛中很难进球，这将是这场比赛的主要原因。

另一方面，巴西队将作为最有希望赢得比赛的球队之一参加这场比赛。他们在4-1大胜韩国队之后进入了这场比赛，并将寻求继续保持这种势头。在过去的5场比赛中，巴西队取得了4场胜利，他们将在这场比赛中延续这一令人印象深刻的表现。在这段时间里，他们总共进了13个球，展示了他们的进攻能力，而只丢了3个球，显示了他们防守的强大程度。

从比赛记录来看，巴西队在这场比赛中占了上风。他们对克罗地亚有100%的不败纪录，他们将寻求延续这一纪录。在过去的4次交锋中，巴西队取得了3场胜利。这两支球队上一次交锋的结果也是对巴西有利的，他们希望能再现这样的结果。巴西队是一群技术精湛的明星球员，他们在本届比赛中不断崭露头角。他们在防守和进攻上都很稳固，他们也很无情。另一方面，克罗地亚在这场比赛中一直在努力晋级，我们预计他们将面临一场非常艰难的比赛，对阵这支出色的巴西球队。我们支持巴西队在这场比赛结束前取得压倒性的胜利。
