* Morocco have played in six World Cup but have not left the group stage in 36 years

* With about 3.9 million people as of last year, Croatia is the smallest country by population to reach a World Cup final since 1950.

* To get to the 2018 final, Croatia were the first team at a World Cup to come from behind in three successive knockout round matches, all of which went to extra time, with two settled by penalties

* In qualifying for their six World Cups, Morocco have lost only four matches and had a perfect record of wins in every game to reach Qatar.

Previous meetings:

The two countries have met only once, in 1996 in Casablanca in the semi-finals of the Hassan II Trophy, with Croatia winning 7-6 on penalties after a 2-2 draw.
