Do any of the so called experts on this thread feel that tiny Croatia can beat the Big Bad "Le Bleu" from France? I'd love to hear some thoughts on this.

As a certified "Armchair Expert" I will say that "little Croatia" may not be as little as we think since they used to be part of the former Yugoslavia therefore, they are not that "unfamiliar" to soccer.

And having said that, they are playing the host team France, not taking anything away from the French, but the "Home Team" advantage is a considerable one.

Bottom line my take is that the probability of Croatia beating the French is limited, not impossible but not likely, say 20%.

My prediction gives it to the French.
