FIFA World Cup 2022 LIVE: Croatia vs Belgium scores - Red Devils heading home as things stand

Croatia and Belgium walk out into the Ahmad bin Ali Stadium, serenaded, as they always dreamt they would be, by Lady Gaga's 'Bad Romance' blasting out over the PA system

There's still plenty of bad blood between Ghana and Uruguay after the latter controversially defeated the former in the 2010 World Cup. Luis Suarez was the main protagonist, and he's been speaking ahead of the re-match

This is Croatia's 6th World Cup and they have reached the semi-finals twice, including in 1998 when they were inspired by Davor Suker. 1998, ironically, is the last time Belgium were eliminated in the group stages. They too reached the semi-finals in Russia four years ago before losing to eventual champions France

Everton midfielder Amadou Onana is suspended for Belgium after picking up yellow cards in their opening two games. How will that impact Roberto Martinez's side?

Niko Kranjcar (remember him?) was the last player to score a winning goal for Croatia against Belgium, during a 1-0 win in 2010. They've met three times since, with the Red Devils coming out on top twice

Given the players at their disposal, I think everyone agrees that Belgium are underperforming. But it still seems bizarre that their record goalscorer, Romelu Lukaku, sits on the bench for the third game running

Croatia are top of the group on four points, with Morocco in second. You'd expect the latter to win today against Canada, which means whoever picks up three points in this one goes through. Croatia, in fact, only need a draw to progress

As is customary, the other game in this group kicks off at the same time, as Canada face Morcco. There's a lot riding on it. Follow all the action by clicking the link below

Belgium are on the brink of being knocked out after their 2-0 loss to Morocco, and Roberto Martinez has wrung the changes in a desperate attempt to get a win. Four players drop out - Eden Hazard, Thorgan Hazard, Michy Batshuayi and Amadou Onana, with Leander Dendoncker, Leandro Trossard, Dries Mertens, Yannick Carrasco their replacements

Croatia came from behind to beat Canada 4-1 in their last match, and, unsurprisingly, manager Zlatko Dalić names an unchanged side from that game
