Team News: Croatia make just one change for Canada fixture

Croatia make just one change for Canada fixture

Zlatko Dalic has made just one change to his Croatia XI for Sunday's Group F fixture with Canada at the Khalifa International Stadium.

On the back of Morocco's stunning win over Belgium, Croatia and Canada have an opportunity to catapult themselves into contention for the last 16, keeping their fate in their own hands.

The Checkered Ones line up with just one alteration from their previous match, Marko Livaja taking the place of Nikola Vlasic.

Meanwhile, Maple Leafs coach John Herdman has also opted to keep changes to a minimum after his side's impressive showing versus Belgium.

Cyle Larin, who with 25 goals has the most strikes in this squad, will spearhead the attack with Jonathan David moving out wide.

Junior Hoilett is the player to drop out of the team, with Alphonso Davies occupying the left wing-back role.

Croatia: Livakovic; Juranovic, Lovren, Gvardiol, Sosa; Modric, Brozovic, Kovacic; Livaja, Kramaric, Perisic

Canada: Borjan; Johnston, Vitoria, Miller; Laryea, Hutchinson, Eustaquio, Davies; Buchanan, Larin, David
