Croatia will surprise many
Wednesday, February 6th, 2008
The weakest team of Group B, and Euro2008 for that matter, are hosts Austria. It is difficult to see them make any mark on the tournament, especially in light of their dismal preparations for Euro2008. Germany are the obvious favourites to go through, and Croatia will probably follow them.
Poland should put up a fight, but Croatia have a more capable team. Coach Slaven Bilic has inculcated a winning mentality in the side, and with exciting players like Luka Modric and Eduardo da Silva, Croatia will be confident of going through to the quarter-finals.
