Analysis and forecast for the EURO 2024 match Croatia – Armenia (11/21/2023)
On November 21, in the match of the tenth round of qualifying for Euro 2024, Croatia will host Armenia at the Maksimir stadium. The referee’s initial whistle will sound at 22:45 Moscow time.
There is a difficult situation in Group D. Only Türkiye managed to participate in the European Championship. Croatia and Wales compete for second place. After seven games, the ladies have 13 points and the Welsh 11. A victory in the match against Armenia guarantees Croatia’s exit from the group.
In the last meeting, the ladies beat Latvia 2:0. Already in the 16th minute, Lovro Maier and Andrej Kramaric scored the goal, allowing Zlatko Dalic’s team to switch to their favorite counterattacking game.
The Flames slowed their pace and focused on ensuring the safety of their own goal. The rivals tried to create dangerous chances, but experienced defenders, led by Manchester City footballer Joschko Guardiol, withstood the pressure.
However, Croatia’s performance in qualifying for Euro 2024 cannot be described as good. They lost to their main rivals, Turkey (0-1) and Wales (1-2), which put them in a difficult situation. Only Wales’ draw in the match against Armenia (1-1) in the last round returned the initiative to the “ladies”.
Croatia’s top scorer in qualifying for Euro 2024 is Andrej Kramaric. The 32-year-old footballer from German club Hoffenheim scored four goals. But the main asset of Zlatko Dalic’s team is a reliable defense. In seven qualifying matches, the Croatians only conceded four goals.
In the last home match, the Armenian national team tied with Wales (1-1). The design of the tournament left Alexander Petrakov’s team with very little chance of getting out of the group for the European Championship. The Armenians had to defeat the Welsh at home and defeat the Croatians in the last round.
Armenia started the match actively and opened the scoring in the fifth minute. But all hopes were shattered in an instant by Nair Tiknizyan, who sent the ball into his own goal. The own goal broke the Armenians. Although there was still half a half left, they failed to create or take advantage of dangerous chances.
Former Russian national team and Zenit footballer Andrei Arshavin said in an interview that Nair Tiknizyan’s own goal was an accident and that Eduard Spertsyan’s game was surprising. The Krasnodar midfielder, according to Arshavin, is much more useful in the club than in the national team.
After seven qualifying matches for Euro 2024, Armenia has eight points, four of them scored away from home. As a visitor, Alexander Petrakov’s team defeated Wales (4-2), ended the match with Turkey in a draw (1-1) and lost the match with Latvia (0-2).
Armenia had an excellent start in qualifying for Euro 2024 and was competing to qualify from the group, but it slowly slowed down and found itself in a crisis. The players lost confidence in their own abilities, which led to serious mistakes that cost the team dearly and ultimately left them out of the 2024 Euro Cup.
Apparently, it was in Riga that the Armenians finally failed to qualify. The Latvians finished the match in the minority, but defended themselves selflessly and maintained the winning score. Although Alexander Petrakov has a great selection of attacking players, his efforts were in vain.
The “ladies” have an extremely simple task: score three points. The presence of world-class stars in the lineup, Luka Modric, Marcelo Brozovic and Andrei Kramaric, will help win against Armenia, which has lost motivation. We recommend betting that Croatia will win and that the total will be less than 2.5 goals at an odds of 2.86.
Prediction and bets for the EURO 2024 match Croatia – Armenia November 21, 2023
In matches where the fate of the team is decided, the leaders come to the fore. Croatia has such players: Modric, Guardiol and Pasalic are extremely motivated to win, which guarantees participation in the 2024 European Championship. But the meeting is unlikely to be open, because the Croatians prefer to monitor the defense and will not take risks . It should be noted that Armenia’s last four matches in the qualifying phase ended with a total of less than 2.5 goals.
Tender: Croatia victory and the total was less than 2.5 goals in 2.86.
