Croatian national team will not count one player before matches with Greece.

Croatia's national team was not able to directly enter the 2018 World Cup, but thanks to the victory over the Ukrainian team will play in the play-offs, where its rivals will be the Greeks.

Striker Mario Mandzukic will be able to help the team, despite the injury received in the last match of the championship of Italy against Benevento. Mandzhukich injured his hip, but despite the fact that he will prepare on an individual schedule, will be able to enter the field in a match with Greece.

But the midfielder Fiorentina Milan Badel will not be able to play in the playoffs. He is also worried about the hip, but the degree of damage is much more difficult, because of what he returned to the location of the club.

The first duel between the teams of Greece and Croatia will be held on November 9.
