A weekend of football in Croatia

21 May 2009

Croatian villas could be the accommodation of choice for football fans heading to the country next weekend.

Two big matches are scheduled to take place in Croatia on June 6th and 7th, with the nation's first team playing Ukraine in a World Cup qualifying on the Saturday and Croatia Under-21s taking on Cyprus Under-21s the following day.

A win for Slaven Bilic's first XI will put some distance between them and their opposition in the Group Six qualifying table, which England currently lead.

Matches are being played to see who qualifies for the 2010 World Cup in South Africa - and Croatia are one of the favourites to make it through to the tournament.

Having helped his nation through to the quarter-finals of the European Championships in Switzerland and Austria last year, Bilic has become one of the most sought-after young managers in the European game.
