Eimer knows Argentina got off to a rough start in the tournament when they were upset 2-1 by Saudi Arabia in their group-stage opener, but they followed with a pair of 2-0 victories before knocking off Australia and the Netherlands in the knockout stage. Lionel Messi helped lead the Argentinians to the final in 2014, scoring a team-high four goals, and hopes to do so again in his fifth career appearance in the World Cup. The 35-year-old forward is tied for second in this year's competition with four tallies and has converted in four of Argentina's five contests.
The expert also knows that Croatia have been no strangers to tight matches in the tournament, playing to a pair of scoreless draws in the group stage before needing penalty kicks to defeat Japan and Brazil in the Round of 16 and quarterfinals, respectively. The Croatians topped Japan 3-1 on penalties and converted all four of their attempts against the Brazilians to reach the semifinals for the third time in six World Cup appearances. Midfielder Nikola Vlasic scored on Croatia's first attempt in both contests while forward Andrej Kramaric has recorded two of the team's six non-penalty goals in the competition.
