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.

Is Alisson better than Ederson at saving penalties?

  I wouldn't be surprised if Ederson comes on assuming they still have a sub left

Can you explain why Perisic doesn’t gets a YC here??
Really if Croatia advance they will have Perisic but if he could miss next game with a YC
What’s the point of having rules then ?

  Because Antony has been diving since he was brought on and it's a physical game that the ref let flow.

So fantasy wise... this was the game to avoid.. almost all were one pointers or less. Yuck. I did have Neymar as 12th man, which doesn't quite make up for this mess. So it can get worse if BRA goes out.

Ok, I reckon penalty 5 will be taken.
Unlike the other 2 shootouts, which were over in the first 3-4.

I’m thinking the penalties taken against Croatia in this tournament so far have just been crap as opposed to amazing saves. Keeper has to guess the right way of course so credit where it is due but they have all been at a good height and not in the corner.
