Analysis
Japan faces a very experienced Croatian side, who other than a dominant come-from -behind 4-1 drubbing of Canada, have been rather stolid so far, with a pair of nil-nil draws. In spite of their loss to Costa Rica, Japan has impressed with a full throttle 4 goal qualifying round including victories over Spain and Germany. The Samurii Blue are not timid, and have counterattacked and finished against two top teams. I like their chances to score again on Monday, forcing Croatia into opening up on offense. Japan is inexperienced, young, but very fast and will not be cowed, and will take it to the older Croatian side. Look for the total to go over 2, with both sides scoring. Third goal will decide it.
