Despite edging out Spain to top Group E, Japan have ended up with the tougher Round of 16 match on paper as they take on 2018 World Cup finalists Croatia. Both sides required positive results last time out with Japan beating Spain 2-1 and Croatia holding on for a nervy 0-0 draw with Belgium that saw the world No.2 sent packing from Qatar. Japan have now beaten both Germany and Spain at this World Cup and will back themselves against a Croatia side yet to find top gear. They were lucky to hold out against Belgium, had to settle for a 0-0 draw with Morocco and came from behind to beat Canada 4-1. But with the memories of 2018 heartbreak still fresh in Croatia's memory, they'll be determined not to let another World Cup opportunity slip against Japan.

If momentum is truly influential in elite-level football, then Japan have every reason to fancy their chances in this World Cup Round of 16 tie. Nobody had given the Blue Samurai a chance of escaping a group featuring Germany and Spain but they did just that courtesy of victories over both - with the latter win coming in dramatic circumstances in the final game. As such, they are bouncing into the knockout stages quite unlike their opponents, who rather snuck through after goalless draws with Belgium and Morocco. Below are the projected lineups for both teams. MORE: Japan vs Croatia lineups Yuto Nagatomo believes courage will be even more important than team selection or tactics for Japan when they face Croatia in the World Cup Round of 16. “I think this is a great opportunity for us to show the world how we can fight like Samurai,” the defender said. “Before they go into battle they polish their weapons and try to improve their techniques, but if they are scared during battle, they would not be able to use those weapons and techniques fully. “It’s exactly the same with football – of course the tactics and techniques are important, but no matter how much we have improved those, if we are scared when we are on the field, those things are useless. “In order to maximise all the tactics that we have been discussing and practising for the last four years, the first condition is to have courage.” MORE: Japan confirmed starting 11 Japan confirmed starting lineup(3-4-3, right to l...

Japan produced the most wacko group stage performance of any team at the World Cup, with their defeat to lowly Costa Rica sandwiched between a pair of giant upsets over Germany and Spain. It's the highs that overtook the lows as the Samurai Blue advanced in dramatic fashion to the knockout stage. They take on Croatia, the second place finishers from 2018, in the Round of 16, as Luka Modric's side finished second in Group F behind Morocco. Croatia have conceded just a single goal thus far, engineering a pair of scoreless draws while blasting Canada 4-1. Still, they were poor at times, hanging on for dear life against Belgium in the finale and seeing the Red Devils out. This match will present a fascinating chess match, as Croatia are happy slowing the game down against a Japan team that's been gangbusters after the halftime break. MORE: Japan vs. Croatia odds Japan took down both Spain and Germany to make it this far, and have earned the respect those results are due, as they have brought 2018 runners-up Croatia up to plus odds on the moneyline. However, interestingly, this game is expected to be low-scoring, even though Japan scored two goals against both European powers in the group stage. The under is a huge favorite, while both teams to score is skewed towards "no," meaning there is still a lot of notice for the Croatia defense.
