Montiel has made only one start, but Acuña has started every match since starting on the bench in the opener. Croatia has come from behind in regular time to win in penalty shootouts in both knockout matches eventually. Messi has led the way with four goals and two assists. They’ve taken different paths to get this far, but both are coming off penalty shootouts in the quarterfinals. How much will that match play in the minds of the players?

Why not put a flier on the greatest player in the world to put in another shift on both goalscoring and creativity fronts? To put it simply, no player at the World Cup has featured a better combination of goalscoring and creativity than the 35-year-old Messi. Argentina do not look inspired in the final third, and seeing as they'll miss a few players due to yellow card suspensions, Croatia could do the business again here with a pragmatic performance. Argentina finished with eight corners against the Netherlands, but a whopping seven of those came in extra time, and this is a regulation bet. After the break, they open up to the tune of 8.5 combined xG. Yellow cards accumulated to this point are wiped in the semifinal, so no players can be suspended for the World Cup final due to accumulation. - Lionel Messi has created 16 chances in the 2022 World Cup, second-most of any player behind only Antoine Griezmann's 17. Croatia have no injury worries to speak of heading into this match. The 34-year-old winger was utilized only as a late punt at the death against the Netherlands as he looked to recover from a muscle issue suffered at the end of the Round of 16 game against Australia. This despite the quarterfinal games featuring these two teams featuring a combined six goals and no clean sheets. One of these teams was expected to be here, but the other one was not. The 2018 finalists are aiming to reach their second-straight title match, after falling just short at the hands of France four years ago.

He is the former editor of The Set Pieces, and has contributed to the Guardian, FourFourTwo, and ESPN. A Crystal Palace fan, he is a long-time subscriber to the belief that it's the taking part that counts. They are the kings of the post-90-minute action. Even if they concede the first goal, as they did against Japan and Brazil, they will back themselves to get back into the match. There is plenty of emotion surrounding this Argentina team - for better and for worse - whereas their upcoming opponents are always calm and collected. Bruno Petkovic notched a dramatic equalizer in the 117th minute, before Croatia came out on top in the shoot-out. There was no shortage of quality, with the midfield trio of Modric, Marcelo Brozovic and Mateo Kovacic able to keep the ball away from Brazil for long periods. Yet four years later and they are just one win away from another appearance in the final. That is a good omen ahead of Tuesday’s titanic tussle with Croatia, an opponent to whom they lost in the group stage four years ago. They completely lost control of the game once the Netherlands had cut their lead to 2-1. Since their first World Cup appearance as an independent nation in 1998, Croatia have appeared at the tournament on five occasions. Penalty shoot-outs are not a lottery, as they are so often claimed to be.
