Spain are predictably unchanged from their win over Ireland, while Croatia have made significant changes to their lineup. Danijel Pranjic and Domagoj Vida have both entered the team, pushing Darijo Srna to right midfield and Luka Modric into an attacking midfield role. With Spain being so strong in the center of midfield, it's not surprising that Croatia decided to drop a striker, and it's also not surprising that they've dropped Ivan Perisic for a more defensive winger.
Spain Lineup (4-3-3): Iker Casillas; Jordi Alba, Sergio Ramos, Gerard Piqué, Alvaro Arbeloa; Xabi Alonso, Sergio Busquets, Xavi Hernandez; Andres Iniesta, Fernando Torres, David Silva
Croatia Lineup (4-4-1-1): Stipe Pletikosa; Ivan Strinic, Gordan Schildenfeld, Vedran Corluka, Domagoj Vida; Ivan Rakitic, Ognjen Vukojevic, Danijel Pranjic, Darijo Srna; Luka Modric; Mario Mandzukic
Kickoff is at 2:45 p.m. ET from the PGE Arena in Gdansk, Poland. You can catch the game on ESPN in the United States.
