For the Croatians, Marko Livaja plays in the offensive zone together with Andrej Kramaric and Ivan Perisic. Livaja is new to the team and came on as a substitute in the first game. Otherwise, the Croatian team relies on a vital pivot consisting of Josco Guardiol, Marcelo Brozovic and Luka Modric. The Canadians play alongside Jonathan David in attack, defensively the team relies on a back three. Alphonso Davis should again play a very fluid role during this game.
