The wait is over. The World Cup kicks off with the host nation, Brazil, facing up to regular dark horses, Croatia.

The tournament favourites lineup as expected, with the likes of David Luiz, Oscar and Paulinho the familiar names alongside Neymar – the Barcelona starlet sports the armband for Fantasy managers far and wide this evening.

The Croatians have the talent to ensure that tonight’s opener will be a cracker, although the loss of striker Mario Mandžukić to suspension for their first group match is a major blow. Hull City’s Nikica Jelavic leads the line for European side, while Šime Vrsaljko is perhaps the surprise inclusion in their lineup as Danijel Pranjić drops to the bench to make way.

Brazil: Julio Cesar, Dani Alves, Thiago Silva, Luiz, Marcelo, Paulinho, Gustavo, Hulk, Oscar, Neymar, Fred.

Croatia: Pletikosa, Srna, Corluka, Lovren, Vrsaljko, Modric, Rakitic, Perisic, Kovacic, Olic, Jelavic.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

    I have a question, it may have been asked already, but can we swap a player who hasn't played yet for another player who hasn't played yet UNLIMITED times, i.e without the player we sub out becoming locked out

    Okay guys. I'm really confused with this formation change issue. People are saying the player who's at far end of the RIGHT side of the relevant position drops out. Right side for our screen or starting 11 team point of view?

    I mean technically it's Left Winger, Left Midfielder & Left Back dropping out right?

    Has anybody who had a Brazil or Croatia player as captain last night tried changing to a different captain ?. If so did you lose your captains points for the original player ?.

    It says in the round 1 article that in the Fox game Brazil have a DGW. I'm pretty sure they don't, given that their next game against Mexico is listed as 'Round 2'.

    Can anyone confirm?
