The match will be held at the Arena Corinthians, Sao Paulo. Kick-off is at 17:00 local time.

Referee: Yuichi Nishimura (Japan)

 

My guess: Brazil 2 - 0 Croatia

The match threads worked well during the 2010 World Cup, so I figured we should have the same kind of threads for the 2014 World Cup as well.

How long until match starts?

Brazil: 2 - Croatia: 1

 

Brazil will fumble their football because of pressure of the opening, of being the host, until they remember that they are Brazil.

[simplezz]

Brazil 3 - 1 Croatia.

Brazil 2 Croatia 1 pressure on both teams as the opening game of the tournament, but expect Brazil to win it :)

I'd love to see a Croatian Suker shocker :p

 

But unlikely to happen. Brazil 2-1 Croatia for me!

[Tomo]

Brazil should win this but i've got a feeling it will 1-1 with Croatia snatching a last minute equaliser.

I'm betting Brazil 3 - Croatia 0.

[Rappy Veteran]

It will probably be a gritty draw!

1-1

They have not finished the stadium. We'll see how this goes...

[firebelly]

Brazil should win, 2-0

[Astra.Xtreme]

Brazil 3 - 0 Croatia

 

This will be the "freshest" Brazil team, so I fully expect them to put an adrenaline-filled beat down on Croatia.

Had you been there already, personally?

This is not what I see here.

Ahh the good old days of Davor Suker, I'd hope for a Croatian win but it's more likely to be a Brazilian win yeah :c

[CloudEngineer]

i'm tipping 2-2 for the opener! last minute goal to croatia

[Roger H. Veteran]

Seems everyone going Brazil... Well looks like I'm gonna join that trend. He he

Brazil 2-1 I'm gonna say.

[Juan4Ever]

Surely Brazil gonna win, but i foresee a hard and closed match. A score of 1 - 0 is my bet.

[ajua]

It will probably be a gritty draw!

1-1

I'm leaning towards a draw as well but I think it could end 2-2. Brazil now has an underrated defense but if they play well from the start they can win it.

[PsYcHoKiLLa]

I've got Brazil in my work sweepstake so guess who I'll be rooting for? :)

 

I thought one of the Croatians was gonna be called Givitacic !

LOLBrazil

[MightyJordan]

That 2/1 Coral bet on Brazil wearing yellow paid off for my brother and myself, so I don't care who wins! :laugh:
