If either team loses this fixture they will be out of the world cup after they play their third game.

Eto'o is out for Cameroon and Modric is a doubt for Croatia.

My prediction is for a Croatia win, perhaps 0-2.

Enjoy the match!

I hope I'm wrong obviously, but could potentially be another flat, formulaic 11pm game. Croatia have way too much talent for Cameroon, hopefully Cameroon try and make a game of it though.

I can see Cameroon looking to frustrate in this match but they kinda have to go for it if they really want to stay in the competition. I suppose a draw is ok for them but it would make them highly unlikely to progress. Croatia have lots of talent and should win and Cameroon will struggle with Eto'o potentially missing. I see this being similar to the Belgium game.

I like to see Cameroon win as that would set up a great last game against Brazil. I think Croatia will win, then will have to beat Mexico to progress. I just would love to see Brazil get knocked out at the group stages.

Why It would be terrible for the atmosphere of the World Cup and I would feel really sorry for the players, especially Neymar, and Scolari. I don't think they will win the cup, but they can't be knocked out so early.

Well if they don't approve, they'll find it hard to get past 2nd round

Ok I get it's being held in Brazil, but they have already got a "free pass" into the tournament, so are you saying on their 2 matches so far they deserve to progress because they're hosting the tournament. They've been quite poor in both matches, I agree Naymer has been good, but a lot of players have been awful (Fred)

If all goes to plan though, they are meeting Spain the the second round and the Spanish are in terrible form, especially their defenders. So I wouldn't write Brazil off.

Well, they are certainly better than Cameroon. I didn't think Brazil were awful last night. They weren't great, but Mexico are a tough side and no other goal keeper would have made some of those saves. I didn't think Croatia deserved to win either. There were some terrible referee decisions in favour of Brazil in the first match, but Croatia weren't exactly brilliant and their goal keeper was at fault for one or two of the goals.

^^ Agree I really enjoyed Brazil/Mexico last night the Mexican goalkeeper was outstanding. Mexico went with a game plan and stuck to it, Brazil for a team with such skill and players just couldn't seem to work out how to break Mexico down, unlike Belgium who worked out what they had to do and did it.

Cameroon are most cynical team in a fairly positive World Cup so far, for that reason i wish Croatia the best in the match.

Cameroon are terrible and croatia should beat them but whilst the last games don't seem to have the best teams in them there is always are uncertainty about them

I'm going to be giving this one a miss. After all of these late nights I need to catch up on some sleep.

Actually, I could do with a rest day from the World Cup to catch up on all of the other things I haven't had time to do in the last week.

Only four more 11pm games after tonight. I know how you feel, I took a week off work because of the 11pm first ten days set up

There are other things I should have been doing in this week but been so lazy, late to bed, late rise and it's typical week off work habit

Cameroon have been the worst team so far. even with a flat 6 in defence they could not defend. I really hope Croatia can break them down early and score otherwise we are in for 0-0.

I pray I am wrong and Cameroon will make an effort to attack this time.
