Croatia and Canada are both looking to kickstart their World Cup campaigns when they meet at Khalifa International Stadium on Sunday.

The 2018 finalists were held to a frustrating goalless draw with Morocco in Matchday 1, while Canada were much the better side against Belgium but were unable to score.

Kick-off is at 16:00 GMT.

Both sides have made just one change from their opening games.

Hadjuk Split forward Marko Livaja starts in place of Nikola Vlasic for Croatia, joining Ivan Perisic and Andrej Kramaric in Zlatko Dalic’s front three.

Budget defender Borna Sosa and midfield playmaker Luka Modric – owned by 18.1% and 14.1% respectively in the official FIFA game – also start.

Canada, meanwhile, have brought in forward Cyle Larin for Junior Hoilett, who drops to the bench.

MATCHDAY 2 LINE-UPS

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

Canada XI: Borjan, Johnston, Vitoria, Miller, Laryea, Hutchinson, Eustaquio, Davies, Buchanan, Larin, David

    No but neither has KDB... You must be too young to have seen how Gerrard carried England on his back in big games.
    
    Also.... Remember when you tried telling me that Belgium were just as good as when they got 3rd in the WC 4 years ago.... 😆

      I am not that young. I am 39..i dont remember England doing anything of note in the Gerrard era. Best result maybe a qf place? The England team now atleast reached the sf of wc and final of Euros..
      
      Well no one really predicted belgium to be this poor. If the removes that oldie eden hazard and an average striker batshuayi, think belgium would have done better.
      But don't think they can beat Croatia.. They are almost out.

        Yes England were poor in Gerrard's era but he was always the bright spark and when they won games he was at the heart of it. Meanwhile KDB is just as poor as the rest of them right now, he can't drag them to a win like Gerrard could.
        
        Also you say nobody predicted this from Belgium, except I did...

        By that context Gareth Bale should be considered the best in the world. He single handedly ensured wales reached sf of 2016 euros and qualified for wales for this WC after 1958.. Great achievement for a small nation esp the sf in 2016
