Video: Serbia prepare for massive World Cup qualifier against Croatia

Serbia trained in Belgrade on Thursday ahead of their 2014 FIFA World Cup qualifier against neighbours Croatia.

Serbia’s 2-1 defeat against Belgium in Brussels two months ago all but extinguished their hopes of reaching the 2014 FIFA World Cup in Brazil.

Serbia must win their remaining three qualifiers and hope that Croatia lose their last three in order for them to finish level on points with current second-placed Croatia.

The last time the two sides met, Croatia were 2-0 winners in Zagreb in March.

Croatia are in two-way fight for top spot in Group A with Belgium, but fell to their first qualifying defeat last time round, a shock 1-0 home loss to Scotland in Zagreb, and are now three points behind Belgium.

Serbia did win their last home qualifier, 2-0 against Scotland back in March.
