Three games in the group, nine points. Thirteen goals scored and only one conceded. But all this does not allow Croatia to be in first place in Group L. There is only one obvious reason: the Czech Republic, which has played five games, has 12 points. But catching up at the top on Monday evening is guaranteed.
Three wins in a row for the home team in their last three games. Of course, everyone expected more than the match against the Faroe Islands, which they won only 1-0 away, but the match was certainly taken lightly, at least initially. But what mattered was the final result, of course.
Against Montenegro, there will be no such problems, at least mentally. And then the visitors are a team that is not going through a brilliant moment, given that they have not won since last March against the Faroe Islands, again by one goal to nil. In short, all this to say only one thing: Croatia will definitely take the three points.
