Croatia - Brazil

You can find better odds at other bookies (eg: Betsafe @2.05) but for the sake of fairness I choose Bet365.

As soon as the match between Brazil and South Korea ended, the bookmakers announced the odds. Bet365 was one of the first to open the betting offer and here 2.50 goals Total was rated at 1.90 (in other words - "50 on 50"). The powerful attack of the Brazilians and the easy match against South Korea could put on "rose-colored glasses" for many gamblers, because now the coefficients fall exactly on the over (yesterday they fell to u1.73). Although the last match was really beautiful and pleasing to the eye, but this is definitely not the game that the Brazilians will always show. Let's remember the group stage. A total of 3 goals have been scored in the three games and only one has been conceded in the three games. Tites' philosophy on the pitch also depends a lot on a good start to the match. If the Croatians do not concede a goal in the first 30 minutes, this match can become really cautious. Even if the Brazilians score an early goal, the match may slow down, and it will not be easy to break through the Brazilian defense either. Not only that, but also the Croatians, who with their unimpressive defense in the group stage finished 0-0 in two games and won 4-1 against Canada. Even here, the average is not good, and the Croatians' problems in attack are more than obvious. With Japan Regular Time ended 1-1, and there, although there were chances, the goals did not come, especially for the Croatians, who after the equalizing goal completely pressured the opponents.

I don't believe it will be a very open game here and the pre-odds have described the goals probabilities pretty well in my opinion. The under looks better value now, and Brazil's win 1-0/2-0 or draw 0-0/1-1 certainly looks decent enough.
