Points: 1634
Trending
Croatia have edged England to secure the 4th place at the start of the year. The runners-up of the 2018 FIFA World Cup won 8 of their 17 games last year, losing 5 and drawing the other 4.
The Blazers had a fantastic run in the World Cup, where they defeated Nigeria, Argentina, and Iceland in the group stages, before getting the better of Denmark, Russia and England in the knockouts. However, they were second best to the French team in the final and had to settle for silver.
Since then, Croatia have been defeated by England, and Spain and are currently on 1634 points. They are a long way away from the team at third in this list, but could lose their place to England if they fare poorly in the next few games.
The Croatians face Azerbaijan and Hungary in the next couple of days in the UEFA Euro Qualifiers. Since the inception of the ranking system, the average rank of the Croatia National Team has been 21.
