I think I'm going 1-0 Croatia, but I really don't know much about either team.

1-1. Ireland will score first and Croatia will get a late equalizer from either Jelavic or Modric. I've watched a lot of Croatia matches since 1993 and this is the first team I have seen that has serious problems putting the ball in the net.

Croatia 2-1
I think they will make it out along with Spain.

Keys and Al I hope that both of you are right. I'm getting more and more nervous as kickoff approaches. Ajmo Hrvatska!!!!

Tough to call because I'd guess Ireland will pack back not lose defensive form by committing any support on countering chances.
They'll hope for a goal off a set piece or safe counter and then be able to completely park the bus.
Croatia is pretty slow in the central defense so they have a chance to nap a long ball goal.
Is Modric playing?
He's the key to me in opening up enough space against a packed box for Croatia to keep forcing decent balls into the area.
With Modric, I'll say Croatia 1-0
Without him: 0-0

I love the irish fan base. Unfortunately I think croatia wins this one.

Croatia's coach just infuriated every leprechaun on the planet.

I really want Ireland to win, especially after the pregame showing their fans

Wrong.
Wrong.

Luka Modric is a beast, but I'm picking the Irish in this one as a 2-1 winner.
