Default Re: International Friendlies (Feb 2-6)

I agree with christo85efc about Croatia - Netherlands but I will take the home win plus DNB option. I watched Netherlands during the qualifications and I was not too impressed. Now that they have many missing players, it will be even harder for them. Croatia on the hand is a very good team, they look motivated, no problems with missing players and the only negative fact is their lack of wins at the stadium in Split. True, they don't win many but their last match at this stadium was a draw against Brasil which is impressive enough.
The straight home win is a bit too risky for me because in the qualifications Netherlands seemed comfortable when having to sit back, defend and hit on quick counters - so the draw is likely as well. confidence is 7/10
