Skonto Rigga

The quarter-finals of the FIFA World Cup get underway at 15:00 GMT, with tournament favourites Brazil in action against 2018 finalists Croatia.

Tite’s side are unchanged from the side that beat South Korea in the round of 16.

But Croatia make two changes to the side that squeaked past Japan on penalties in Matchday 4.

Budget defender Borna Sosa is available again and starts at left-back in place of Borna Barisic.

The other change sees Mario Pasalic come in for Bruno Petkovic.

MATCHDAY 5 LINE-UPS

Brazil XI: Alisson, Militao, Marquinhos, Silva, Danilo, Paqueta, Casemiro, Raphinha, Vinicius, Neymar, Richarlison.

Croatia XI: Livakovic, Juranovic, Lovren, Gvardiol, Sosa, Modric, Brozovic, Kovacic, Pasalic, Kramaric, Perisic.

Brazil need a Modric to be the cool head in midfield to play the killer ball. Too frantic, too used to playing well when they have time and space.

Croatia need a Richarlison or Neymar to get on a Modric assist.

    Got past his man a couple of times. Couple of dangerous crosses. Hasn't really done anything wrong.
    
    Went down a bit easy for a foul, but doesn't hurt his team...

  I think you might be confusing Croatia with Morocco mate, tbf they've had some chances and even pressed Brazil at times even tho they're obviously outgunned
