The Russians had to prove their skills in Slovakia on the last World Cup qualifying day. No oddly easy task as it should turn out. Before the start, a tip on Russia as a favorite was quite reasonable based on the odds. Already in the first pass the Sbornaya was released from this role. After 38 minutes, the Serbs did not go unearned by Milan Skriniar in the front. This result also reflected the pause. After the side change, the Russians invested more in the match and were ultimately rewarded with a 1-1 victory by Mario Fernandes in the 71st minute of the game. However, the joy of the balance was short-lived. The home team had the right answer and only three minutes later they were again led by Robert Mak. There should be no more goals in the end.
The first defeat had been perfect in the course of the World Cup qualification. However, the two previous group games were very successful and ended with two victories against Slovenia and Malta. The Slovenians were narrowly defeated by 2:1. Six looted points put the eleven in second place. However, the leader from Croatia also has six counters in his account. The offensive scored six goals and the defence was given four goals conceded. Atrem Dzyuba is the best attacker in his own ranks with three hits.
At the Euro 2021, the Russians were to be classified as a bitter disappointment. After three group rounds, there was only one victory. This was won after a 1-0 victory over Finland. Belgium (0:3) and Denmark (1:4) faced clear failures. In the end, it was only enough for the last place in the league table. This has led to a change of coach. Since the end of July, Valeri Karpin has been sitting on the bench and replacing the last unsuccessful Stanislav Cherchesov.

The Croats have finally fulfilled their clear favourite role against the underdog from Malta. After 90 one-sided minutes, the home team had a clear 3-0 victory. The “Fiery” showed problems, especially in the first round, and hardly came to goal space scenes. Insofar as there were opportunities, they remained unused. As a result, there was no goal in the half-time break. After the side change, Croatia increased the number of strokes and after 62 minutes Ivan Perisic deservedly took the lead. In the 76th minute, captain Luka Modric scored a 2-0 penalty. The meeting was thus concluded. Josip Brekalo, who scored 3-0 in Wolfsburg, provided the crowning glory.
The World Championship qualification started far from successful for the Croats. The first matchday was lost in Slovenia with 0:1. Afterwards, however, two success stories should be recorded. In addition to the 3-0 on the last matchday against Malta, Cyprus was previously defeated 1-0. Croatia is currently at the top of the table. Together with Russia, the Fiery have six counters in their account. Only one goal was conceded in the three matches. The last two attempts ended in zero. The odds show Croatia as a favourite for the group victory.
In the course of the Euro 2021, the “Vatreni” finished second in the group phase behind England. He brought Spain with him as an opponent in the last sixteen. In a top game, both teams separated in the regular season with a 3: 3. In overtime, the “Furia Roja” won with 5:3.

Without any doubt, this is the top game of Group G. Both teams have claims to the place in the sun, although Croatia shows the significantly lower odds. But there is no real favorite tip in a direct duel. This is primarily due to the home advantage of the Russians. Will they know how to use it? In the course of our sports betting tips, a prognosis is not easy. Both competitors have strong players in their own ranks and will look for the way forward. For this reason, goals are to be expected on both sides. The direct comparison underpins this tip. The final duels ended with 4:3 and 3:1 for the fiery.
