France VS Croatia.

France is a pretty strong team but haven't been spectucular at the game. They're only the 7th best team, but still better (by ranks) than Croatia.

Croatia is pretty much the definition of underdogs, being the 20th best team in the world. but making it to the Grand Final. They survived two of their knock out stages in penalties, and their other one in Extra Time.

All the strong teams like Germany, Brazil, Belgium, Portugal and Argentina all got eliminated, with Germany not even surviving the group stages.

Most of this is probably white noise, but yeah. It's going to be a close game, I think. France is stronger, but Croatia is pretty much a wild card and can easily pull off a win. Croatia are strong in the mid-field, and even though France has really good (and famous) players, they don't always get goals often. I've tipped Croatia, hoping for a miracle (and also because I've already lost in my comp).
