Croatia is traditionally seen as one of the favorites of the selection. The composition of the team is gorgeous in terms of names and everything rest is pretty decent. Of course, the Croats are the main competitors of the Russian national team for the 1st place in group N. That, in principle, was understood after the draw. In the opening round the Croats sensationally lost to Slovenia (0:1). Nevertheless, in the second qualifying match, the Drafts defeated Cyprus (1:0). In the League of Nations, the Balkans did not perform well. The team finished that tournament in 3rd place in the group, losing at home to Portugal in the last round (2:3).
Italy kicked off the World Cup qualifier with a 2:0 home win over Northern Ireland. The success of Roberto Mancini’s charges was ensured by the goals of Ciro Immobile and Domenico Berardi, who were noted before the break. This victoria became the fourth in a row for the Italian national team. In the UEFA Nations League, the national team defeated Bosnia and Herzegovina (2:0) and Poland (2:0) without conceding goals and also beat Estonia in a test game (4:0).
