2022 World Cup expert picks, odds for Argentina vs. Croatia semifinal (The Athletic)

Lionel Messi and Argentina take on Luka Modric and Croatia in a World Cup semifinal with the South Americans as big favorites.

Montiel has made only one start, but Acuña has started every match since starting on the bench in the opener. Croatia has come from behind in regular time to win in penalty shootouts in both knockout matches eventually. Messi has led the way with four goals and two assists. They’ve taken different paths to get this far, but both are coming off penalty shootouts in the quarterfinals. How much will that match play in the minds of the players? So far, Messi has delivered, but Argentina faces an experienced and irrepressible Croatia side in a semifinal on Tuesday.

Plus, head-to-head record, latest odds and how both teams have fared in Qatar so far.

As he was challenged the ball rebounded back to him from Josip Juranovic and then from an off-balance Borna Sosa and Alvarez just kept going and going and poked it home. Alvarez side-footed past Livakovic and it was game over. He had already been feeling the back of his leg and was moving less easily. As he held off Gvardiol, Messi was able to get his shot away with Livakovic parrying. Despite Luka Modric’s claim to be the best midfielder of his generation it felt like the narrative was set to be Messi’s and so it proved. If there had been metal bars around the pitch it could not have been more cagey and it felt like it would take something surprising to break the deadlock. Messi will need Alvarez with the Manchester City striker not only scoring twice, and earning the penalty, but doing all of his running for him. And running and running. It was pure genius from the genius. Quite why Messi ended up playing the whole game when he could barely run was surprising. This tournament, so rich in its football, its drama, its upsets, and so controversial in so many other ways, has the final act it so craved. In his fifth attempt it really is his final chance.

Argentina and Croatia meet in the 2022 World Cup semi-finals, but what is their head to head record ahead of clashing in Qatar?

Croatia will now hope to repeat their win at the 2018 World Cup in Russia when they meet Argentina at Qatar 2022. Argentina took the first win in their head-to-head record with Croatia at France 1998 with a 1-0 triumph. Four of those five have also featured penalty shootouts, which Croatia won, so Argentina will now hope to get the job done in regular time in Lusail. Vatreni won in France and La Albiceleste won in Russia. Both nations have so far won in one friendly game and in one match at a World Cup. Vatreni are yet to play a game in Lusail before meeting the South Americans for their sixth encounter so far.

Argentina boss Lionel Scaloni has plenty of decisions to make when he picks his starting line-up to face Croatia in Tuesday's World Cup semi-final.

Croatia have no fresh injury or suspension concerns, Borna Sosa having returned to start their dramatic win over Brazil in the last round and he lines up at left-back again. [Lionel Messi](/topic/lionel-messi) leads Argentina as ever, looking to add to his four goals in Qatar, and Julian Alvarez starts alongside the captain as Lautaro Martinez misses out once again. A switch to five at the back brought Lisandro Martinez back into the first XI for the penalty shootout win over the Netherlands in the quarters, after a fiery 2-2 draw and extra time, but he drops to the bench again.

Why not put a flier on the greatest player in the world to put in another shift on both goalscoring and creativity fronts? To put it simply, no player at the World Cup has featured a better combination of goalscoring and creativity than the 35-year-old Messi. Argentina do not look inspired in the final third, and seeing as they'll miss a few players due to yellow card suspensions, Croatia could do the business again here with a pragmatic performance. Argentina finished with eight corners against the Netherlands, but a whopping seven of those came in extra time, and this is a regulation bet. After the break, they open up to the tune of 8.5 combined xG. Yellow cards accumulated to this point are wiped in the semifinal, so no players can be suspended for the World Cup final due to accumulation. - Lionel Messi has created 16 chances in the 2022 World Cup, second-most of any player behind only Antoine Griezmann's 17. Croatia have no injury worries to speak of heading into this match. The 34-year-old winger was utilized only as a late punt at the death against the Netherlands as he looked to recover from a muscle issue suffered at the end of the Round of 16 game against Australia. This despite the quarterfinal games featuring these two teams featuring a combined six goals and no clean sheets. One of these teams was expected to be here, but the other one was not. The 2018 finalists are aiming to reach their second-straight title match, after falling just short at the hands of France four years ago.
